I have this question - the surgeon who treated my finger after suturing and fracture wrote to me in a declaration to ZUS that I was fit to work. That finger that was broken still hurts me. Can I get sick leave from my family doctor despite the work capacity described by my surgeon?
It is worth contacting your family doctor about this and getting a referral to another specialist in surgery, so that he can confirm or rule out the possibility of further work.Legal basis:The Labor Code Act (Journal of Laws of 2014, item 1502)
