Success With The V. A. Due To Exceptional Assistance

Dr. Anaise and Dr. Benham continually provided me top notch assistance throughout my recent disability case with the V. A.. They always swiftly responded to my inquiries with professionalism and reassurance. The evidence (medical opinion) they provided was second to none. They provided me with a sol...id, well researched and expansive document which was so solid that a V.A. rater attempted to ignore it. But after higher level reviews, my case was finally approved. Highly recommend this highly competent team!!!

EXPERT Medical Opinion!

Dr. Anaise helped with my VA medical claim for obstructive sleep apnea after I found him through hours of online research and comparison. I could tell by the reviews that I was making the best choice for me…and now I absolutely know I did! I contacted him through his online portal and I was contacted... the very next business day. The email was detailed with regards to his opinion regarding my case, information that was needed from me, cost for his service, and the timeline. Unfortunately, not sure why, but I hesitated. Big mistake! When I finally sent my information about a month later, there was constant communication. I not only received my IMO when I was told I would receive it, but it very detailed! I’m no medical expert, but after reading through it, I just knew I made the best choice! After I reviewed it, it was then finalized by Dr. Anaise and emailed back to me the very next day. The hard copy was also mailed out two days later! The promptness of Dr. Anaise and Dr. Benham cannot be denied! The only delay in this entire process was when I waited to submit my information to him! I was granted 100% VA disability (less than two months later). The information from Dr. Anaise was clear, service was prompt, and quality was exceptional. I have already started recommending Dr. Anaise to other veterans and wish that I had found him a whole lot sooner!!!

Excellent Service and Representation

I retained Dr. Anaise to assist me with a VA medical claim for obstructive sleep apnea after doing extensive research on field experts. Communication with his team was timely and efficient. They answered all of my questions fully, and explained everything plainly. Dr. Anaise took the time to caref...ully review my case before accepting it, then wrote an Independent Medical Opinion based on my military medical records. The work product I received and submitted to the VA contained irrefutable proof, research, and evidence that was overwhelming and clearly laid out. It enabled me to have my claim favorably adjudicated quickly and without additional evidence or documentation being solicited. What an absolute professional and champion for veterans rights, I could never come close to fully explaining how helpful he and his team were. I whole heartedly endorse Dr. Anaise and his team, and hope other veterans are able to use his services for successful outcomes.

Dr. David Anaise IMO Document

Dr. Anaise was fantastic for me. I needed an IMO to help my VA claim. I reached out to Dr. Anaise through email and he responded within 24hrs. He provided me with how he could best help me and what I would need to do. Once I provided Dr. Anaise with all the documents and payment he had provided me wi...th my IMO document in a few weeks. The best thing I truly appreciate about Dr. Anaise was how straight forward he was. There is no fluff, just honesty and a solution. He never wasted my time. I would, and already have, recommended people to Dr. Anaise. Where all other places (VA Rep, law offices that represent Vets, etc.) told me what I needed could not be done and won, Dr. Anaise found a solution and provided guidance for the path ahead.

IMO Letter for VA Disability

I reached out to Dr Anaise for a records review and his Expert Medical Opinion provided via an IMO Letter for a Sleep Apnea claim - secondary to PTSD that I was going to submit. I requested his services because I knew how difficult winning this claim can be with the VA and that he was the right exp...ert for the job. I submitted my relevant medical records to him and within a week I had a very detailed IMO letter to support my claim. My sleep apnea claim was processed and approved in less than 2 weeks by the VA and I know for a fact, it was in large part due to Dr Anaise's IMO letter. His IMO Letter left no question unanswered and ensured the success of my claim. I would use his services again in the future! Highly recommend!
