I will be going with him since he is local. Reviewed others here in town but the warning signs were there! 

Was quoted 1200 for a complete IME when I visited the office yesterday. Very professional staff and welcoming office setting.

My opinion is that he is one of the tops along with Dr. Ellis, and Dr. Bash. My strategy is go with private board certified specialists then have it backed up with an IMO board certified doctor.

 

edit- Dr. Bash not Bush.

How was you IME with Dr. Steingart.  Were you pleased with the results?  Did they help your claim?

[Oceanbound]

Been busy, apologize for the tardiness.

Currently waiting for my C-file.

Until then I am still getting all of my service illnesses taken care of by private board certified doctors by my company insurance I work for.  Some is out of my own pocket for instance the chiropractor and one time specialty physician. So as soon as I get the C-file, I will schedule my appointment with Dr. Steingart, and post my full review of what I know will be the favorable outcome for the IME.

Update -- Still waiting for my C-file and will call the 1-800 number on Monday to ask for the status.

How was your IME with Dr. Steingart? Were you pleased with the results? Did he/his office help your VA disability claims? And, if yes, in what specific ways do you think this doctor helped you out on your VA disability claims? And, does Dr. Steingart do VA disability IME's to service-connect veterans for heat exhaustion/stroke and/or sunstroke and the residuals/secondary effects? my service records directly show I sustained heat exhaustion and my service records also show my army NG captain verified just a few months later i was still suffering from severe heat stroke issues, but dr. ellis said it was much more likely heat stroke or a combination of heat stroke/exhastion due to the many amount of IV bags they pumped into me and the attending doctor's lack of regard/tests to help my heat stress.
