If I Don’t Like My Doctor, Can I Make A Switch?

Are You Satisfied With Your Medical Care After A Workplace Injury?

Improper treatment, unavailability, poor service and unfair practices may have you dissatisfied with your doctor. If you are unhappy about the quality of service from the doctor treating your injury, you may be able to choose another. You will want to consult one of our experienced lawyers for advice regarding how to select alternative treatment.

Our attorneys at Rosenthal, Levy, Simon & Sosa have helped countless injured workers over the years. Our legal team provides dedicated and professional service to all of our clients. We can give you the guidance and legal advice you need to maximize your benefits and get the medical care you are entitled to. You can count on us to fight for your rights throughout the process.

How Can I Seek An Alternative Medical Specialist Or Doctor?

When you file a workers’ compensation claim, your employer’s insurer will provide a list of doctors who can oversee your medical treatment. If their doctor refers you to a specialist, you must also select a specialist on their pre-approved list. You do not have control over which doctor you see and this may lead to a dissatisfaction with service.

Workers’ compensation law allows for you to switch doctors one time. Once you decide to switch doctors you cannot switch back. The quality of your care is important to us. If you are struggling to obtain the treatment you need after sustaining an injury on the job, consult one of our lawyers.
