Hi everyone,I am about to have a medical assessment fo the new esa. Do I need to be terrified about what will happen. Can I ask the name of dr who will carry it out and can I ask for a copy of report. Best wishes to everyone. karensweep

I think everybody should be cautious and prepared for the ESA medical, but there should be no reason to be terrified :)

The "doctor" should introduce them self and also should be wearing a name badge.

You can ask for a copy of the report, but not on the day of the medical, your request needs to be made to the DWP office dealing with your claim.

Good luck

Gordon

Gordon, Thank you for your reply.It puts my mind slightly at rest.I keep being told I have nothing to worry about but knowing what unfair assumptions they make about nothing scares me. I will let you know what happens. Best wishes Karen

Hi Karen please don't worry I too had to have medical and flew through it. Providing your problems are genuine and your truthful I cant see there being a problem. I had a nurse who was really lovely and even cut the examination short due to my problems and her being able to see what difficulties I was having.
