Blair v. Oakwood Park Su Casa

606 So.2d 740, 17 FLW D2453, (Fla.App. 1 Dist., Oct 22, 1992)

The JCC may reject the testimony of one doctor in favor of another. However, the basis for the rejection of one physician's testimony over another must be stated in the order. In this case, it appeared that the JCC had overlooked or ignored testimony of one physician. Accordingly, the case was remanded for a determination as to whether the physician's opinion should be considered in denying benefits to claimant.
