One of the most important elements of any workers' compensation claim involves the doctor you see. When you file a workers' compensation claim, you are required to see a doctor in a employer-approved comp care facility or official occupational health center.
The care at these facilities is often less than it should be and the doctors are quick to proclaim you well and send you back to work ASAP, even if you're not ready. That isn't right. And that's why you need to talk to us.
That fact is, you're only required to see that employer-approved doctor once. After that, you are free to choose your own physician. At the West Hartford Law Offices of Kenneth B. Katz, we have excellent relationships with many reputable doctors throughout Connecticut. We know who's for real and we know whom you can trust. We can also help you if you need a new doctor.
