This hasn't happened to me personally, but I'm just wondering why it would.

The only thing that comes to mind to me is if someone is/has had an eating disorder, some sort of abuse, some sort of serious issue that has not been treated (like serious, not just bipolar, something that you might be put in the loony bin for), unrealistic expectations, etc.

Has anyone ever been denied for being just a little off (because face it, we all are).

Some of the q's on my eval were like "Do you think people in general would lie to get ahead?" Well YEAH! But I put no.

Keep trying....I "passed" my Psych eval and will be banded on the 16th of October...However, I was in class with a lady who failed it x3 and finally got a date...she got second opinions! Good Luck!

I still can't believe any of you had to take any written test. I basically just sat and gabbed with the lady and gave her $75.

One of my very good friends is a shrink. I know from support group that my surgeon has just become a center of excellence, and they have more people than they can handle. I asked his nurse at support group if they needed anyone to do psych evals and she said yes, that people have to wait to get into the person they have been using.

I gave her my friend's card and now he is going to start doing psych evals.

Now I can find out what they are looking for and what he has to tell them for people to get approved for surgery.
