ALJ Theurer does his job to keep approvals low!
He doesn’t weigh factual information properly & refuses to use the claimants medical doctors opinions even when the opinions make sense in comparison to labs, tests, scans, etc.
When he has a VE testify, knowing claimant can not meet any jobs per DOT, he will ask VE to decrease skills below sedentary & SGA requirments to rule unfavorably.
This ALJ is very inconsistent & confusing with his verbiage in hearing letter which in my opinion is done to make claimant feel inadequate and unjustified.
