DLA - medical supportting evidence

I listed someone as the "professional person to contact for further evidence of your condition". However, DWP made their decision without contacting her, my GP or my consultant.


I have sent the DWP a 24 hour diary as additional evidence and requested their decision be reviewed.

Is there any way I can also force the DWP to contact any of the medical people I listed on my form?

Hi Helen, so sorry to hear your story, what a disgrace. I was in a similar situation. I asked for a review and submitted 2 consultant reports and one from my GP. Got the decision, partially, overturned in my favour. Not easy getting the medical profession to do the reports for you but do ask. I was / am very fortunate to have very supportive docs. You must try and get their assistance and put it right in front of the DM. Good luck, Malcolm.
