LIVE Stream tomorrow, Tuesday, December 9th, at 2 pm EST!

Join me for this Live Stream where I'll be discussing the case of a Veteran I worked with recently and how we got to the approval. Then I'll move on to answering questions from the Viewers.

youtube.com/live/kViVCL1UHcI?si=mUdUH9OK6Uh6N34m

Topics include VA Disability Claims, Mental Health, Medicine - however, remember - this is not medical or psychiatric advice. While I can answer general questions about medicine/psychiatry, I can't give specific advice to each person. It's always best to discuss with your Doctor, Therapist, or Provider. Hope you can join me. Thank you!

Hi Folks! If you have a history of trauma or are interested in trauma itself, you need to check out the Trauma Safe Lab Podcast. I will link you the trailer for the show below. It is a podcast hosted by a Veteran. The interviews are incredible and informative. And yes I am biased as I will show up as an interviewee later in the series as well haha! Thank you all!

This week I received a wonderful gift from a Veteran I had the honor of working with.

It’s a wallet with a mini badge inside that reads:

“Federal Agent’s Medicus Fideli.”

I had to google it (of course 😅) — it translates to “Faithful Physician.”

The Veteran wants to stay anonymous, but I just want to say how much this meant to me. Grateful for the trust and for the reminder of why I do this work. Thank you!

Hey folks - apologies but there won't be a long form video this week. I've been battling a nasty upper respiratory infection since last week and I just can't record. But I should be back at it next week. Shorts from the last video will still be going up periodically though. Sorry for the interruption in content but I look forward to getting back into things! Also, thank you all for your support! Almost to 5k subscribers...
