Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): diagnoses were indicated and that Plaintiff’s medical records “continue[d] to support from a psych standpoint” only. (AR 254.) However, the record is inadequate to support MetLife’s rejection of a comorbid diagnosis in favor of finding Plaintiff was disabled solely due to her bipolar disorder that was in partial remission at the time she was diagnosed as having dementia. The Court finds Dr. Stallings’ opinions, based on an eight-year treating relationship with Plaintiff and his consideration of Dr. Whitehurst and Dr. Carstens’s reports, the MRI results, and repeated neuropsychological testing results to be far more reliable than the opinions of Met-Life’s three IPC’s whose opinions were each based on a single file review. See Oliver v. Coca Cola Co., 497 F.3d 1181, 1198 (11th Cir.2007) (<HOLDING>); Smith v. Continental Cas. Co., 450 F.3d 253,
