PER CURIAM.
Diana L. Oswald appeals from the affirmance by the District Court1 of the
Commissioner's denial of her claim for disability benefits. The Administrative Law
Judge ("ALJ") determined that Oswald had the residual functional capacity to return
to her former work as a receptionist and thus was not disabled. Oswald challenges that
determination.

Having considered the briefs and record, we conclude that the Commissioner's
decision is supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole. We are
satisfied that the ALJ did not err in assessing Oswald's subjective complaints of pain,
in making a vocational assessment, or in rejecting the opinion of her treating physician.
Accordingly, the decision denying Oswald disability insurance benefits and
supplemental security income is AFFIRMED. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
