Question
63SIERRA
recently my spousie asked her psyc dr at the VAMC in temple tx, if she would write a DBQ for her, regarding her long time depression illness, the Dr informed her that she writes DBQs for nobody. I would like to know if it is part of a Doctors job description to write DBQs for the veterans they care for. We have received letters from the VA that seem to indicate that it should be no problem getting a DBQ . Why the Dr doesnt want to write one is interesting, maybe she doesnt want to get involved in the claims process. The primary care doc that my wife sees wrote a wonderful letter for her, but she is not a psychiatrist and that is mandatory for a mental illness claim.
