Default Substance Abuse

Let’s say, someone had an incident that the company made then get a substance abuse evaluation done. The evaluation comes back saying they have a dependence of alcohol and a mild alcohol use disorder. And the evaluators reasons for this diagnosis are reasons that you mentioned 16-18 years ago in college. Would this be a valid reason to warrant a second opinion? I believe if this person had a dependvy issue, the evaluation should reflect something far more current than 16 years ago? The person hardly drinks now and the evaluator put down also has withdrawal symptoms. Why is this crap such taboo when a shrink can say someone has an issue, yet if it was Cancer, nobody would bat an eye for getting multiple opinions!
