Verify credentials
Listings should identify the clinician's professional credentials, specialties, and the states where they are licensed or authorized to practice.
INDEPENDENT MEDICAL RESOURCES
Find independent medical professionals who work with Veterans.

⚕
Independent providers. Clear separation from VA.
Provider listings are separate from official VA resources and are not VA endorsements.
Important:
Providers listed here are independent third parties. They are not affiliated with, endorsed by, approved by, or employed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs or The Veteran File. A nexus letter, DBQ, or medical opinion does not guarantee VA benefits. Veterans should independently evaluate any provider before purchasing services.
PROVIDER DIRECTORY
Search by service or specialty.
The directory starts curated and neutral. No provider receives a higher ranking because they pay for placement.
HOW LISTINGS WORK
Useful information without implying endorsement.
Every listing should give Veterans enough information to research a provider independently.
Show services clearly
Each provider can identify whether they offer nexus opinions, IMOs, DBQ evaluations, records reviews, telehealth, or other relevant services.
Keep VA resources separate
Independent provider listings stay visually and functionally separate from official VA facility data and VA-accredited representative resources.
PROVIDER LISTINGS
Request consideration for the directory.
Provider submissions are reviewed before publication. The Veteran File may verify credentials, services, licensing, and public practice information.
