ATOS medical
Has anyone who lives in Spain had to attend an ATOS medical. I have just been informed by DWP that a letter is on its way to me so that I can telephone the INSS so that I can arrange a medical. They also told me that it would probably be advisable if I had an interpretor with me (which I would have to pay for).

Re: ATOS medical
My husband has had a medical for his Incapacity benefit. Not sure if this was ATOS. It was all arranged for him by the DWP and he saw an English-speaking Dr in Marbella. This was four hour's drive away, but was the closest English speaking approved one, although he could have seen a local Spanish one if he had preferred.
