I had a snowmobile accident 2 years ago and broke my tibia
and ankle in several places. Have 6 screws holding everything
together.
Now I have bone spurs in my ankle and it is very painful.

Dr. says there is nothing he can do.This was a Workman Compl
case and I think the Dr. does not want to do it for what they
will pay.
Can bone spurs be removed in joint?

I would go out and get a second opinion, it may depend on where the bone spurs are and if they are difficult to get to, but spurs in and of themselves CAN be removed.
