Dr Jeffery Birnicker TERRIBLE DOCTOR- WORKERS INSURANCE DOCTOR -SENT PATIENTS BACK TO WORK IN WHEEL CHAIR san diego California
DR BERNICKER IS A DOCTOR WHO SPECIALIZES IN EXAMINATIONS OF INJURED WORKERS FOR INSURNACE COMPANIES. I WAS ONE OF THESE WORKERS HE EVALUATED. I HAD A TERRIBLE LIFTING INJURY AT WORK , WHICH ULTIMATELY CAUSED A MULTIPLE DISC PROTRUSION IN MY LOW BACK. I WENT THROUGH THE WORKERS COMPENSATION SYSTEM AND WAS SENT TO THIS TERRIBLE DOCTOR BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY.
WHEN I WENT TO HIS OFFICE HE WAS RUDE AND NOT INTERETSED IN HEARING MY HISTORY OF INJURY, HE ACTED UNPROFESSIONAL AND WAS SHORT AND ABRUPT WITHME . HE EXAMINED ME FOR FIVE MINUTES MAXIMUM AND NEVER TOUCHUNG ME OR MY BACK AND SAID MY MRI ( WHICH SHJOWED A 6 MM DISC PROTRUSION) WAS NOT SERIOUS ENOUGH FOR ME TO BE OFF WORK.
I ASKED HIM WHY COULD I NOT STAND UP AND WHY I HAD SO MUCH PAIN AND HE DID NOT PRIVIDE AN ANSWER FOR ME. HE MEERLY STATED HE WOULD WRITE A REOPORT OUTLINING ALL .
AFTER WEEKS PASSED I RECEIVED A COPY OF THIS REPORT BY HIM FROM MY ATTORNEY.
HIS REPORT WAS FULL OF FALSE INFORMATION. HE NEVER MENTIONED ME BEING IN WHEEL CHAIR, THAT I STILLHAD SEVER P[AIN, HE DID NOT CONSIDER MY INJURY SEVERE ENOUGH AND HE BELIEVES I WAS OVERTREATED BY OTHER DOCTORS-( WHO IN MY OPINION DID AS GOOD AS THEY COULD).
HE SENT ME BACK TO WORK EVEN THOUGH I WAS IN A WHEEL CHAIR AND STATED I COULD BEND AND PICK UP MATERIAL WEIGHING OVER 50LBS WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM!!!
HE IS OBVIOUSLY AN INSURANCE DRIVEN DOCTOR WHO DOES NOT FOLLOW THE WORDS -DO NO HARM!!
HE ONLY CARES ABOUT HIS INSUARNCE BUSINESS WHICH I UNDERSTAND COMES DIRECTLY FROM INSURNACE COMPANIES FOR INJURED WORKERS.
DO NOT SEE THIS DOCTOR HE IS NOT FAIR AND ONLY SIDES WITH INSURANCE COMPANIES!!!
IF YOU ARE SENT TO HIM FOR ANY WORK INJURY -GET YOUR ATTORNEY TO REQUEST ANOTHER FAIR CARING DOCTOR NOT DR BERNICKER WHO ONLY CARES ABOUT GETTING PAID BY INSURANCE COMPANIES!! .
