[QUOTE="longlunchguy, post: 436346, member: 10603"] I guess workers comp laws vary from state to state. Here in Fla if you are injured you must report it to your sup. Then you see the "approved" doctor (usually accompanied by said sup). If your injury is more serious, the approved doc can recommend a specialist. Liberty Mutual will assign your case to an approved specialist. The original poster on this thread should ask for a second opinion. Get an ortho to look at your knee. Insist on this second opinion. Ask friends, family, and coworkers which ortho they recommend. Then ask Liberty for the list of approved orthos in your area. Once you see an ortho, that physican makes all the calls on your case, from surgery to rehab to when you are released. You have rights, even in Florida. You will have to fight for them. Best of luck.
