Hi everyone,
I’ve got a question about when my personal surgeons opinion differs from what the C&P nurse puts in her report. I recently went for a C&P exam and it was clear from the start that she was very unfamiliar with the entire process. I was walking her through the entire DBQ and telling her what to put down as the answers. Let’s say she doesn’t write up favorable findings, will they take the opinion over my personal doctor who wrote up a very detailed and favorable NEXUS letter?
Also, is she required to write up an opinion about her findings? she never asked me anything about why I thought it should be service connected or about my history. She said all she does is fill out the form and send it in without an opinion on anything. Is it possible the rater already established service connection with my prior evidence, and the exam was to just establish a rating?
Thanks for the input
