Sharon L. Anderson appeals the magistrate judge’s judgment granting Provident *370 Life and Accident Insurance Company’s (FLAG) motion for summary judgment and dismissing her complaint seeking to collect benefits under a long term disability insurance policy issued by FLAG. Anderson argues that the denial of benefits was an abuse of discretion in light of her treating physician’s opinion that she was totally and permanently disabled from engaging in her occupation as a bank president.

PLAC’s medical personnel interpreted the results of clinical tests undergone by Anderson following corrective coronary procedures as showing that her condition had improved to the extent that she was capable of performing her sedentary occupation. The administrator was not required to give special deference to the opinion of Anderson’s treating physician, and Anderson has not provided a current opinion from her treating physician or any other medical evidence specifically refuting the opinions of the FLAG medical personnel. See Black & Decker Disability Plan v. Nord, 538 U.S. 822, 123 S.Ct. 1965, 1970-72, 155 L.Ed.2d 1034 (2003). Thus, the administrator’s denial of disability benefits was not an arbitrary decision constituting an abuse of discretion. Meditrust Fin. Servs. Corp. v. Sterling Chems. Inc., 168 F.3d 211, 213-215 (5th Cir. 1999).

Because Anderson did not argue below that the FLAG should have obtained an independent medical review of her condition, she is not entitled to review of that issue for the first time on appeal. Bourgeois v. Pension Plan for Employees of Sante Fe Int’l Corps., 215 F.3d 475, 480 n. 14 (5th Cir. 2000).

The magistrate judge’s judgment granting PLAC’s motion for summary judgment and dismissing Anderson’s complaint is AFFIRMED.
