Independent Medical Opinions for VA Disability Claims
We provide evidence-based nexus letters connecting your service-connected mental health conditions to secondary physical conditions. All opinions are based on your existing medical records and peer-reviewed research – we do not diagnose new conditions or provide treatment.
Primary Mental Health Conditions We Address:
- ✓ Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- ✓ Major Depressive Disorder (Depression)
- ✓ Generalized Anxiety Disorder
- ✓ Military Sexual Trauma (MST)
- ✓ Adjustment Disorders
Secondary Conditions We Can Assess:
- ✓ Sleep disorders (insomnia, sleep apnea)
- ✓ Cardiovascular (hypertension, CAD)
- ✓ Gastrointestinal (GERD, IBS)
- ✓ Chronic pain & migraines
- ✓ Sexual dysfunction
- ✓ Metabolic syndrome (weight gain, diabetes)
(Must have existing documented diagnoses)
Important: We do not diagnose these conditions. We rely on existing documentation from your medical providers to assess whether a supportable nexus opinion can be provided.
Specializing Exclusively in Psychiatric and Mental Health Conditions
We provide nexus letters for PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use disorders, sleep disorders secondary to mental health conditions, and other DSM-5 psychiatric diagnoses. We specialize exclusively in psychiatric conditions. For secondary physical conditions (cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, etc.), we provide the psychiatric nexus opinion only. Physical diagnoses must come from appropriate specialists.
