DWP Health Assessment

Just got back from the Job Centre where I had my second health care assessment for my ESA. The first time I had an assessment there, I didn't like the Medical Practitioner. I felt he was trying to catch me out. This time it couldn't have been more different. I had a female practitioner who obviously knew her stuff and was very sympathetic towards me. She didn't ask me lots of silly questions and as she wrote things down she read allowed so I would know what she had written. She also gave me some advise on physio and occupational health as well. I was very impressed..
