The aviation opthalmologist and psychiatrist that I had to see to certify that I was not visually impaired or insane both thought it was a ridiculous waste of time.
This is typical of the bizarre, stressful and costly world in which Avmed guinea pigs so often find themselves.

Medical professionals with specialist qualifications and long experience in their specialisation apparently don’t know what they’re talking about, but Avmed people without the specialist qualifications and experience apparently not only do know what they’re talking about but know better than the professionals with specialist qualifications and long experience in their specialisation. It’s one of the many mysteries that contribute to the mystique of aviation.

Briefly scanning through the 420 FOI stuff that Clinton uploaded also makes me wonder how many of the people who work in CASA can actually go home and consider that they've done a solid day at work improving aviation safety...what a waste of our taxpayer dollars.
Wonder no more. Those in Avmed with messianic delusions of being the last bastion between aviation safety and aviation carnage go home each day knowing they’ve prevented carnage by, for example, imposing their botched form and unqualified opinions and demands on guinea pigs who’ve declared a diagnosis of ADHD or ASD.

Meanwhile, in the real world, their work is increasingly detracting from aviation safety.
