Evaluations for Direct Service Connection

When Veterans are applying for direct service connection, the examiner will explore and document the Veteran's stressors from their military service. Consequently, the examiner will document how these stressors have affected the Veteran's psychological presentation, as well as social and occupational functioning. 

Evaluations for Secondary Service Connection

When Veteran's are applying for secondary service connection, the examiner will discuss and document how the Veteran's service connected physical conditions have impacted the Veteran's psychological presentation. 

Review Evaluations

Review Evaluations are conducted for Veterans who are already service connected for a psychological condition but may not be receiving a VA rating reflecting the current level of associated impairment. Examiners will assist in providing an updated account of the Veteran's mental health with suggested VA rating.

Evaluations via Telehealth Platform

All examinations provided by Dr. Riddell & Associates are conducted via a HIPAA compliant telehealth platform. Veterans are able to access services if they are present in any of the 42 PsyPact states/territories. Veterans will be provided with a login and technical support as needed.
