Reviews of Our Independent Medical Opinion Service

VMHA is a truly incredible company that actually cares about veterans. The process is smooth. The Doc cares, listens and if necessary, produces a thorough review and medical opinion. The medical opinion is based on facts and medical rationale and carries some serious weight. In my case, I encountered a very negative C&P experience due to my anxiety. The IMO prevailed against the exam and a favorable grant was awarded. Choose Dwayne and VMHA over anyone else.

Would definitely recommend.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Edwards and was so pleased with her kindness and empathy. She was very informative, well spoken and easy to talk to. She provided me with a broader understanding of this practice and the amazing work they are doing to help our veterans. I would 100% recommend both Mr. and Dr. Edwards as your first point of contact for guidance and assistance if you’re a veteran!

Things I like and dislike about VMHA:Like:Quick and easy processDoesn’t charge a ridiculous fee or require a percentage of disability back pay.Offer’s a reasonable payment plan if you are in need of one.Didn’t give me the feeling like I had just been robbed without even accomplishing the task I was trying to achieve in pursuing VA disability.The Doctor assigned to my case, Alana Moses, did a tremendous job listening and writing up my diagnosis in a timely manner, provided relative reasoning to support my diagnosis, and provided a nexus to further support my diagnosis.VMHA provided a great number of resources for continued treatment so that I could get the reliable help that I need.Dislikes:I’m upset I didn’t find them sooner.Salute to Dwayne Edwards and the VMHA team for the help and services they provided me!

VMHA provided a very thorough and professional mental health evaluation experience. They took the time to actually listen to my symptoms and concerns. The evaluation was detailed, compassionate, and well organized. Their report helped support my VA disability increase, and I truly felt heard throughout the process. Highly recommend their services to any veteran looking for a quality mental health evaluation!

Great company. Everyone has been very responsive and respectful. Definitely made the process easier.

I contacted VMHA in the Fall of 2025 and I am very happy I did. Communication is the key to success in all relationships and VMHA was amazing. Dwayne was super responsive, supportive and informative in getting everything set-up and Dr. Edwards was very thorough, professional and compassionate. The resulting IMO was perfect and played a critical role in a successful claim. Thank you VMHA!

I did get an increase on my PTSD rating but it was not the amount of increase I deserve. Dwayne reached out to me and is guiding me through the process of my appeal. Glad they care so much and I really appreciate them.

Mr. Edwards and his team were incredibly helpful. I recommend them for anyone needing help and support.

The professionalism and step by step help from every level of the staff. They helped give me a voice and be heard in the VA. I cannot recommend enough

I cannot imagine working with anyone other than VMHA. The customer service is outstanding. I feel like my concerns were understood immediately and that I am safe to open up about my mental health issues with them. The Independent Medical Opinion session was a delightful, effective, and efficient procedure. The paperwork returned to me will assist in my VA disability claim immensely!

I highly recommend VMHA to all veterans who are in need of support. I was very impressed with their services. Dr. Edwards and her staff treated me like I was a part of their family. They listened to my needs and provided exceptional service.

Dwayne Edwards and his team did exactly what they said they would do, awesome experience. Everyone at VMHA was helpful and explained everything. I recently received my rating, I went from 50% to 70%, thanks to the great people at VMHA. Can not thank you enough

Having compelling and thorough documentation is a must to show the severity of your symptoms with specific examples. This is where VMHA can help you! I went from a 30% mental health rating to 70% thanks to VMHA. My experience with VMHA was exceptional from start to finish. Not a single snag, just smooth coordination, communication, and care every step of the way. 🌟 Dwayne is genuinely committed to helping veterans. He is available text, email, and phone call — after regular business hours, weekdays, weekends. He combines empathy, patience, and expertise needed to deal with the stress of VA claims. 🌟 Contacting their stellar customer support team is easy. They are always kind and happy to help. If you lack tech skills, Desirae Huff will square you away with setting up your portal. Much gratitude to Desirae🙏. 🌟 Dr. Powers conducted my screening with compassion, patience, and precision. She listened intently, never rushed me, and captured the full scope of my experience. The IMO and nexus she produced was clinically compelling with a deep understanding of the complexities of my case. The VMHA team exceeded all of my expectations. Schedule a consult and see for yourself!

My name is Larry McGhee and VMHA was absolutely excellent. They worked closely with me from beginning to end. My case is not over yet and the are still assisting me.
