Texas
Independent medical opinions from licensed providers, for veterans in Texas. We offer records reviews, nexus letters, and independent psychological evaluations - all secure, remote, and flat fee, with a free phone discussion before you choose.
Local service options
Texas is home to one of the largest veteran populations in the country, from the Fort Cavazos and Fort Bliss communities to Joint Base San Antonio, the Gulf Coast and the Panhandle. VA disability claims for Texas veterans are handled through the Waco and Houston VA Regional Benefit Offices, while health care is spread across several VA health care systems statewide.
Wherever you live in Texas, you can work with Patriot NEXUS Letters from home. Our office is in Colorado, not Texas. A free phone discussion, secure record upload and telehealth when an evaluation is involved let us serve veterans across the state without a trip to our office. Call (844) 368-2757 to discuss your medical evidence.

Texas has two VA Regional Benefit Offices - Waco and Houston - that provide in-person benefits information for veterans across the state.
See the Waco VA Regional Benefit OfficeThe Texas Veterans Commission offers free claims counselors, mental health programs and other services, and the Texas Veterans Land Board runs state veterans homes and land and home loan programs.
Visit the Texas Veterans CommissionVA disability compensation is a federal benefit. Claims from Texas veterans are decided under the same federal rules as claims everywhere else - Title 38 of the U.S. Code and the regulations in 38 C.F.R. Part 3 - not under state law.
Under 38 C.F.R. § 3.159, competent medical evidence is evidence from a person qualified through education, training or experience to offer a medical opinion. VA weighs each opinion on the provider's qualifications and the reasoning given, not on whether the provider lives in Texas.
That is why our licensed physicians (M.D. and D.O.) and clinical psychologists (Psy.D.) can review records and, when an evaluation is involved, meet by secure telehealth with veterans anywhere in Texas. No medical opinion can guarantee a VA decision, and VA makes the final determination on every claim.
Serving veterans in Texas
The VA rarely denies a claim because a veteran is not credible. It denies claims because the file does not contain a medical opinion connecting a current diagnosis to service. That is the gap we close for veterans in Texas.
