    Hello ohalloran and welcome

    Unfortunately yours is a familiar tale on the forums. Give it a couple of days and you can ring DWP to request a copy of the assessment report. This will give an indication of the possible outcome. There is no point trying to second guess the outcome some bad assessment result in good awards and visa versa.

    Please come back when you have the report and we will try and help if needed.

    This will most likely to affect him for the rest of his life. It is always good to audio record meetings like this. Video recording too... Am glad you have been there to support..Many people do not seek advice before these meetings. There are many people who have absolutely no idea that they can even take somebody else. Please report to their manager... C.Q.C and Appeal . Some people end up going to tribunals... Take care of each other. This is a community, and we can help each other...

    I phoned and requested a copy and received my ESA medical assessment report in under a week.
    Took about 3 weeks and two phone calls to receive my PIP medical assessment report.
