• noting it is reversible error when an ALJ “explicitly rejects one or more of the claimant’s impairments . . . and proceeds to the later steps of the sequential analysis only with respect to other claimed impairments”
• noting it is reversible error when an ALJ “explicitly rejects one or more of the claimant’s impairments . . . and proceeds to the later steps of the sequential analysis only with respect to other claimed impairments”
• “Thus, there is no ground for reversal because the ALJ proceeded beyond step two in the sequential analysis in discussing all of Plaintiff’s impairments.”
• An ALJ is not required to perform the six-step analysis discussed in Newton when the treating physician’s opinion is not entirely rejected but is rather given less or little weight
• Even assuming the ALJ made an error at the Step 2 severity discussion, “there is no ground for reversal because the ALJ proceeded beyond step two in the sequential analysis in discussing all of Plaintiff’s impairments.”
