McCabe v. Bechtel Power Corp.
510 So.2d 1056, 12 Fla. L. Week. 1816, (Fla.App.1 Dist., Jul 28, 1987)
Court determined that deputy commissoner erred in accepting one doctor's depositional testimony over that of another. The treating physician was in a better position to express an opinion as to the claimant's condition as opposed to an evaluating physician. All of the medical evidence was presented by deposition. The vantage point of the appellate court is not inferior to that of the deputy commissioner in interpreting deposition evidence.
