    ICBC also frequently uses Dr. Paul Bishop, a physician with the Back Pain Clinic at Vancouver General Hospital ($321,137. ).

    ICBC uses a small group of doctors all the time. This allows experienced and specialized lawyer for injured people to learn a great deal over time about the strengths and weaknesses of these doctors including how they hold up in court. For example, one medical specialist ICBC uses a great deal writes reports which do not usually acknowledge that the person he examined has much of a problem. In court, however, this doctor is very agreeable during cross examination to suggestions from the lawyer for the injured person that the person is legitimately suffering from a lot of pain even though he did not find much on examination.
