Believe me, I checked out Dr Bash before I took out a loan for a couple grand.

Dr Bash is a disabled veteran with Multiple Sclerosis and has over a decade of diagnostic research in diagnosing MS with MRI's at the NIOH. His expertise in diagnosing neurological and spinal disorders interested me the most. I needed to have SMR's and decades of medical records actually read and made since of. Even the honest VA C&P examiners/consultants are not going to do that in the hour or two you get at a C&P.

Last summer I had a VA/PCP accuse me of being dishonest, by paying for an IMO from Dr Bash and sending him and my private Dr treatment records. He refused to recognize the diagnoses for MS and dropped all my pain meds, chewed me out like I tried to go around the Va's back.

He said if the DVA ordered and paid for it, thats different.

My experience with getting an IMO seems to be far from over. I have no suggestions on how to prevent the same type of repercussions once you submit the IMO to the VA. Especially if it comes back with a conflicting medical opinion.

I do know if your not service connected for it, it's not likely you'll see much in the way of care for it.

If he checks out, give him a try before the prices go up.

Dr Bash was worth every dime.

Maybe Dr Barson will be the same for some of us.

Lord knows we need honest accurate IMO's wherever we can get them.

Let's give Dr. Barson a chance before we scare him away.

He did answer my email. I posted it on line, but

will post again.

Here it is:

I plan on reposting without my phone number since i have received 12 crank calls within 24 hours of posting. I needed that to end.

I am curious as to why you wished to be deleted from the Hadit site. Several of us were interested in you and your post.

I hope he has caller ID in case they call him again-

I think that is disgraceful that he got crank calls-

then again- the internet is not always a safe place to post personal info-

I have been trying to spread the NVLSP BWN request to numerous Navy vet sites-

One Navy forum could not post the message from NVLSP-the same one I posted here-until I removed the phone and fax number for Rick at NVLSP.

I dont think anyone who is a member here would call this doctor with a crank call- there are hundreds of guests who read the posts and maybe the calls were from lurkers who saw his phone number here-

I posted my phone number once here on the old hadit board for a vet with an emergency-and I got deluged with calls-

and even threats-

I hope he returns and I am sure he can understand that we need to assure ourselves who he is-

before anyone starts sending to him their records and other personal stuff-

I dont believe anyone here would stoop so low as to make crank calls-

but many many people who we don't know read these posts everyday.

I have checked him and his credentials. We definitely need his help on the board.

He is just like us, innocently placed his telephone number on the site.

If anyone is serious about using his service sent him an email as I did.

He will answer you,

Maybe, 1 crank made 12 calls. I hope that we can put this to rest and move on.

While others have checked out his creditals, I haven't. I just went to militry.com and put in his name and it shows him as active.

Can you be active duty and get 10% from the VA? Perhaps the site is out dated.

I still haven't heard from him. Which is a main reason for me to be suspicious--

Betty has he responded to you other than say I got crank calls.

Has he responded to anyone regarding a claim?
