I have been diagnosed recently by a Psychiatrist as having adjustment disorder having been involved in a car accident. The Psychiatrist was employed by PIAB as well as an Orthopaedic Surgeon.
I don’t know what the official findings are from the Orthopaedic report as yet.
I can understand why the Psychiatrist diagnosed me with such but am still a bit shocked. I’m also conscious of this very personal information being shared with PIAB and possibly in court and how it will
affect the outcome of the assessment . Knowing that the medical findings will be taken into account by PIAB when examining the claim, does the Psychiatrists report also have a bearing ?
Thank you.
