I am being handled by icbc due to a couple of car accidents. They are putting me to vestibular therapy for headaches. I have an accomodation form filled out by family medical doctor and am swimming for my symptoms. Can personnel officer deny or override the family doctor's recommendations.

Thank you for your question. If you are inquiring as to whether your employer can refuse your doctor's accommodation requests, generally speaking an employer can only do so if it would cause undue hardship.
