independent medical examination

There was a request since May for an independent medical examination that went unanswered, and no positive response was received to agree to such an examination despite repeated requests.

“there was a correspondence from, I think, May, if not earlier, in which that was requested ... the correspondence went unanswered on that point ... we did get answers to other parts ... but not to this ... after so many requests, the stonewalling is no independent medical assessment ... there was never a positive response to this, which is yes or no”
