Hi guys, I have the dreaded medical next week. What I was wondering is do they go through the descriptors from the form ie walking, dressing etc, or do they just ask general questions about how your health problems effect you? Sorry if it sounds like a stupid question but I don’t know. Many thanks

Hi JLP

What is your medical for? if you look in the members only guide there is a section on what questions you may be asked at an assessment.

In reply to your question below the answer could be both, the assessor might go through your application or they could ask you certain questions, unfortunately we do not have a crystal ball, remember you should be able to request a copy the assessment report by contacting the DWP office dealing with your claim the following week after your assessment.

Hi Gary thanks for your reply. ESA medical. I’ve looked through the guides but couldn’t see it. Any chance you could send me a link or point me to the page number? Thanks
