I am scheduled for a c&p physical on Thursday then 2 hours latter I am scheduled to take Xray's at a different location. I was told the VA contracted examiner would not see the Xrays but the radiologist would comment on what he sees.
I don't understand this as the physical examiner will be touching, feeling, pushing, etc., and talking to me about my VA rated injuries but the radiologist will not even see me he/she will only look at the xrays after the xray tech takes the pictures.
I guess it helps the vet as the xray might not show something that the physical examiner says he saw or touched.

Does this make sense?
