    I realise that, but we've had a few on here go into blind panic over it. Sometimes it's nice to throw a positive in to show it's not all bad :)

    No because that gets peoples hopes up.
    On simple examination it is easily shown that ATOS makes far more mistakes than correct decisions.
    They are not fit for purpose.

    I can only go by my experience. Doc done a full examination of my knees and spine. Which I've also heard they don't always do, he was thoughtful, considerate and very professional (seen the same doc twice)


    At the end of the day, you will need to appeal against their decision. And keep on fighting until you feel they've got it right.
