Re: Richard Dement Dunn
ToWhom It MayConcern,
Mr. Dunnes has been underactive care for chronic sinusitis with secondary otitis media that has shown limited response to treatmentthus far. It not onlyaffects his hearing significantly but also has an effect on general endurance. In my opinion this significantly affects his ability to function as an active attorney in court. His current prognosis for return to full function is at feast until December 18,2015, as he has been consulting with another specialist as well. If you have any further inquiries, please feel freeto contact my office. Sincerely,
it* William HRotzler, M.D.
