NYPD Psych DQ or on NYPD psych review info and help..

[Nathenn]

Hey guys I have a quick question, what are my chances of beating a DQ for the medical? When I was 17 5 years ago I dislocated my shoulder. I got therapy treatment with no surgeries and any other procedures afterwards. I took my medical on May 5 and was placed on review. The review doctor said its hard to believe I never had any problems with it afterwards and requested an MRI and x rays. After doing so she deferred me saying I get surgery to repair the shoulder because there is a tear in it currently or I'm DQ. My ortho cleared me saying the findings in the MRI just shows I previously had a dislocation. so did the physcial therapy and my physician all said I was fine. I won't get surgery for the many different reasons and more importantly because I don't feel any stress or pain from the shoulder. I currently lift heavy weights daily and have no issues. I've managed to speak to the doctor to see me again this coming week and go over my results. She was willing to do so including speaking to my ortho on the phone. She also said she won't change her mind so it's looking like a DQ. Any insight or tips are hugely appreciated.

I forgot to mention when the Nypd doc checked me my shoulder had full mobility.

These are positions with the the NYCDEC/ bureau of water supply. In other words; you'll be working up this way in the Upper Hudson Valley posted at the reservoirs. Give the test a try....you have nothing to lose.

GL with that they don't hire much and they still have other exams to pull from before that one.

True, and those few hired by them receive their police training up here; not at the NYPD academy.

I would write directly, by USPS, mail directly to whomever physician is the head of the medical dept of NYPD. Explain your situation to him and attach your medical documentation to the letter with your doctor's (orthopedic) opinion.

That's what I wanted to know. I might end up on psych review with them as well. Smh.

Its unfortunate but yes, DEP police, NYC sheriffs, both processed by PD. I believe corrections started doing their own processing back in 2013 because PD was literally DQing almost all of their applicants.

I was thinking of doing that if Tuesday doesn't go well. I will attach all 3 docotors clearence letter as well as write my own formal letter. I have a meeting with my ortho tom I will also ask him to write a formal letter for the head of the department since my ortho is a professional and can explain it much better then me. Basically I will have 3 clearence letters and 2 letters from my PT and my ortho as well as a letter from me.

Review your orthopedic physician's narrative report very CAREFULLY. Very Important-- make sure the report contains no speculative terms such as maybe, could be etc. That renders the report to be of limited probative value.

And it's up to the Dept MO, not YOUR Dr, to decide.

Very true...

Will do. The officer at the medical told me he doubts Anything will change because it's up to the ortho PD Doctor but it's still worth a shot.
