My son was injured on construction job in KS in Oct 00 resulting in long thoracic nerve damage & scapula winging. Have seen 2 doctors who have differing opinions. Worker comp insurance wants him to see a third doctor for a third opinion. Sent to 1st doc by local orthopedic surgeon, sent to 2nd doctor by Company Insurance rep. Insurance rep says they need another opinion-their choice again. Still cannot work, still unresolved if surgery will be needed/done. 1st doctor says permament disability, 2nd doctor says it's just weakness, even though there's zero activity on both EMG tests. Does he have to go to insurance reps choice of 3rd doctor or can he find his own? Do you recommend he hires an attorney to assist me with this? Never needed a lawyer before, this is foreign territory for him, don't really know where to turn.
