Re: Worrying news for ESA claimants converting from DLA to PIP.

Most people with longterm illnesses are under at least one consultant and that consultant will be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that the patient both has and is affected by a condition and are happy to support those patients. Whilst GP's may not have the time to categorically confirm a condition for the sake of expedience that is rarely the case with consultant's who don't keep people on their lists if they do not believe and have medical evidence to support a condition. As I've said before even when a specific diagnosis may not be possible they have the means to confirm a problem exists, my experience is that consultant's are happy to give information on their patients even if the DWP don't bother asking for it.
