EMPLOYER REPRESENTATIVE

Privately held Company


This case was a little tricky given the minimal engagement of the GP and the employee’s severity of their condition and treatment. This case was a stop start case with continued curveballs being thrown and we had to be a little creative in finding an outcome that would benefit all involved. This case ended up with a change of three WRP’s due to unforeseen circumstances however, was executed effectively with minimal disruption.

I would like to thank The Rehabilitation Specialist for their continued support and professionalism.
