RE: JoAnn Bowerman
Dear Attorney Sadlock:
1 received your letter of December 17, 1997 in regards to Ms.
Bowerman, also known in our office under the name of JoAnn Gilkey,
in regards to a motor vehicle accident which occurred on 6/23/94.
I had the opportunity of seeing JoAnn in the office on December 21,
1994 as a referral from Dr. Ernie Rubbo. She presented herself at
that time as a 30-year-old right hand dominant female who complains
of neck pain, headaches, pain in the right arm. She stated that all
her symptoms began following a motor vehicle accident on 6/23/94
when she was the restrained driver in a motor vehicle which was
moving and was rear ended. The patient underwent initial care and
evaluation and treatment by Dr. Ernie Rubbo. She did not ~eceive
any significant benefit since that period of time and therefore she
was referred to the office. I evaluated her on December 21, 1994
and reviewed an MRl which revealed a lateral disc herniation at the
4-5 area with relatively normal rest of the lumbar spine. I had
started her on some nonsteroidal anti-infl&mnatories at that point
in time and because of her ongoinq symptoms I referred her for a
cervical epidural by Dr. Lori Dunn, an anesthesiologist, who
performs pain management of procedures and the patient underwent
this procedure. The patient did have short term relief with the
epidurals where she had three sets of epidurals. She still has had
neck pain and discomfort, headaches, and occasional arm pain. When
she returned back to our office on April 26, 1995. The patient
continued to have complaints and was now complaining of some pain
in the ulnar distribution in the hand and therefore an additional
referral was made with Dr. Turgeon, a neurologist, and she
underwent an EMG study of the upper extremities and this EMG was
found to be normal.
JoAnn continued to have complaints on my next visit in October 1995
and my concern was that the findings noted on the MRl did not
clinically correspond to the patient \ s overall subjective
complaints, the patient having a negative EMG, I was uncertain to
what CAn be determined as a true success rate of anterior cervical
