The judge refused to call the treating orthopaedic surgeons and occupational therapist and declined to call the experts at trial because the experts' supplemental reports were insubstantial, the core disputes turn on credibility and causation which the judge and counsel can resolve, and the treating surgeons' opinions and lack of surgical recommendation undermine the plaintiff's claim of significant nerve root compression; accordingly the case was set down for a three‑day hearing without calling the doctors.
