I reached out to Dr. Bash back in May 2014, traveled to Maryland for an exam and it has taken a few months to have my Nexus and DBQ forms done. He's very thorough. Though difficult to reach at times. It is known that he is a hard person to reach due to his schedule. However, he does tell his clients to constantly reach him. I had him do a Nexus for my cervical spine compression, sleep apnea, hearing loss, tinnitus and scars. I submitted the Nexus and waiting for the DBQs. Currently 30%. Hope that the results will be in my favor. Currently have the DAV assisting. Read 50/50 results from other users here, both great and not so great from the VA decisions w/ Dr. Bash's IME.

My take from this thread.

Some folks like Dr Bash, some don't and they are both very passionate about it. This however is not the place for a knock down drag out fight where everyone starts questioning each other's credibility. So just let's move this discussion along. HadIt.com does not endorse anyone I own it so I should know if I've endorsed someone. He is a regular guest on our podcast and Patrick428 with your experience as a psychologist who worked for Veterans Affairs and specialized in PTSD I'm guessing you would make a great guest also, let me know if you are interested.

Patrick428 you bring some great life experience as a combat veteran and a psychologist who has done VA Compensation and Exams. I want to welcome you and I hope everyone else welcomes you and we can share our knowledge and help another veteran.
