## Opinion text

Dissenting Opinion by
Judge Doyle:
Contrary to the majority’s finding that there was no evidence whatsoever to suggest that Dr. Stull informed Mr. Horne that he suffered from asbestosis in 1977, is the Claimant’s own testimony which the referee, as factfinder, chose to credit and which must be accepted. Sokol v. Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board (State Regional Correctional Facility at Mercer), 91 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 396 , 497 A.2d 670 (1985).
Accordingly, I dissent.
