I know that Dr. Bash is well respected on this forum, so I sought out his service to write me an IMO for my prostrate cancer . He took a long time to get up with me , even failing to call me after a call was scheduled. I had to email him again, and request another call. He was never specific as to the cost of his services. I used Dr. Anise's services in the past and his fees for two IMO's were $1500, in fact that is what he charges everyone. Another doctor Dr. Seiter has his fees listed on his web site and his services for an IMO are $500. Dr. Bash's secretary called me a few minutes ago and quoted me $10,000 for an IMO. She wanted $3000 down, and to arrange a payment plan. I informed her the the fee was ridiculous, explaining what Dr. Anise charged me in the past and what Dr. Seiter charges. She asked me what did I think was a fair fee. I refused to answer her telling her that I though that Dr. Bass was trying to get rich on the back of veterans. Maybe my opinion of Dr. Bash is wrong, I sure hope so. If anyone wants to get an IMO check out the following link from Watchdog.org , it list many doctors willing to provide IMO's.

IMHO, you do not need to pay for an IMO/IME. Don't get me wrong they are great if you can afford it, I never could. The thing is whenever your symptoms flair up, make sure you are seen or treated by

I never paid more than a $15.00 or $30.00 copay for an IME or a an IMO. It takes a disabled veteran years of misery to accumulate $10,000 in backpay. A veteran should not have to be rich to win a VA c
