[SFCTRUCKDRIVER]

ok,

hope this is the right way to do this.

for the more knowledgable of you on here, please give your opinion of this letter:

To whom it may concern,

This letter is written at the request of Mr..... who has been under treatment at this clinic since.....

Mr..... is being treated for PTSD and panic disorder with agoraphobia. This has been related to his services and combat experiences. He is currently being prescribed medication as well as pyschotherapy to help with these anxiety and mood issues.

At this point in the treatment, Mr... medications are being adjusted as this severe anxiety is limiting and interferes with his daily functioning.

call em at this number.....

The Dr is a licensed Pyschiatrist and has all those letters besides his name LOL

well,

is this a good or bad letter?

thanks

Okey I wanted to shrink this up for your I'm no specialist by no stretch my IMO was not from a MD either but a psychotherapist but his IMO went in to detail how it or my current diagnosis fitwith my active duty and how he obtain and what information he used to make this diagnosis and my current prognosis and was through and 2 to 3 pages. I find this one to be empty and missing what counts how these probles link to your Active Duty Service. Don't shoot the messanger and I know I know a closed mouth gathers no feet...

Thanks for the input,

I am going to take your comments and the letter written by the Dr (not me and not a lay person), back to him next week and ask him to rewrite it. He is a great Dr, just not versed in scamming vets for an IMO and how to write a good IMO for the VA.

I am not gathering anything to write a letter for a Dr, but trying to get a good Dr info on what is needed by the VA for a letter.

thansk for all the information, some of you guys and ladies went the extra mile trying to help......

I have one from a Psychologist that is much longer than that with clinical terminology to back it up from testing that is recognized by the VA. This should be a whole page at minimum.

George is correct-no proof of stressor,no comp.For PTSD claims.

Many psychiatrists will describe one or two of a veteran's stressors for C & Ps etc- but unless the vet has the CAR,CIB, or PH on their DD 214- or unless the shrink served in their unit with them at time of stressor as an eye witness to it as well- they cannot verify, through their report, that a stressor did occur.

The VA will take the information you gave them as to your stressor (s) and then have this verified via JSRRC- Joint Services Records Research Center.

They need details as to places and dates that can help them search the unit records, etc.

Many PTSD vets had many stressors.

Some vets have had incidents that VA does not consider as raisong to the level of what a PTSD stressor is.

I posted a topic here- available under search- as to what a stressor is and isnt regarding PSD claims.

SFC,

Did you mean to actually post this ?

Hadit.com IN NO WAY supports vets scamming the VA.

Carlie:

SFCTRUCKDRIVER isn't saying that vets should scam the VA. He is saying that some IMO docs out there scam vets. He is saying that some IMO docs overcharge for their services because they are able to write in VA language. ;)
