Complained About The Doctor Immediately After Evaluation

[pitabread]

I had a C&P evaluation and the doctor was over an hour late, then she was rude and mean, and called me a liar straight to my face.

I went directly and made a complaint, but the Chief was on vacation at the moment. I spoke to the patient advocate and a Supervisor in the C&P area and made a written complaint. They still sent her report in, and go figure she denied my claim. All this time I have continued to complain about this doctor, even not knowing what the outcome would be. They said they would get me a new evaluation. What do I do now? Any advice as to where I go? I don't think it's fair I have to wait for an appeal? Thanks for taking the time to read.

No it is not the first date. I suffered a tbi and because of it I have seizures. I have had them since the accident and have been treated for them since before 1998. My appeal for % was feb 2003. My test was done april 2013. How would it be correct? Please explain? Advice? I am confused

pita,

I too have a seizure disorder due to TBI on active duty, only back then they didn't have

a label or 38 CFR criteria for TBI.

TBI regs only came into the code effective Oct 2008.

There are several things that play into effective dates.

When date were you separated ?

When date did you submit your VERY FIRST claim for VA disability benefits

and what issues were on that submission ?

What is the effective date SC was first granted for seizures and

at what evaluation (percentage level) ?

Also - what was the result of the Feb 2003 appeal ?

How about scanning / posting, the exact wording from the Reasons and Bases Section

of the decision in question - not personal info such as name, address, claim #, etc . . .

this I good. I will get this info and try to submit it. I can however inform you that I was awarded 10% in feb 2009 (back to feb 2003 that is how long it took to decide) then we appealed and as of today it is still in the Board of Appeals (since feb 2009) Now I have been awarded 100% but effective to the date the doctor saw me april 2013 which make no sense as there is appeal on the same issue. This as a secondary to tbi.
