District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Rehearing Denied February 29, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Dennis M. Jansen of C. Wade Yeakle, III, P.A., St. Petersburg, for appellant.

Kurt P. Hampp of Jacobs, Robbins, Gaynor, Hampp, Burns, Cole & Shasteen, St. Petersburg, for appellees.


THOMPSON, Judge.

The claimant appeals a workers' compensation order contending, inter alia, that the deputy commissioner (deputy) erred in concluding that because the doctors did not express their ratings in accordance with the American Medical Association's Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (the AMA Guides) he could not consider their testimony to determine the amount of claimant's anatomical impairment. We reverse as to this point.
