I told off SIRA for knowing Dr Watson's fraudulent assessments and allowing it to continue. He is the worst of the worst and dangerous to injured workers. If you are sent to him by insurers, this is an indication that you have a serious case and they are targeting you, putting as many obstacles in your way to deny you proper medical treatment. There should be criminal investigations on him.

I was sent for an IME through workcover after a MVA at work. Dr Watson lied about not having received any reports, was looking at my shoulder not my forearm and elbow., also asked me to take my top off for what reason I have no idea. So his recommendations have made the insurance company has denied my surgery. What a rude incompetent liar. He was also deaf as a post and hunched over and could hardly walk.

This Dr will lie,lie and lie again. I had a number of issues with my spine and he did a report for DVA stating that I was fully fit for service with no restrictions. The other 3 specialists I saw were appalled at what he had written. Refuse to see him or record everthing he says as he will definitely lie.

This IME is an unethical quack who causes treatment to be denied even when thete is serious injury like in my case. I had a detached MPFL and he said all i needed was physio and a return to work plan
