Local service options
Houston has one of the largest veteran populations of any city in the country. Harris County alone is home to well over a hundred thousand veterans, the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center anchors care for the whole upper Gulf Coast, and Ellington Field Joint Reserve Base keeps a steady Guard and Reserve community in the area.
Everything we do for Houston veterans can be handled remotely - a free phone discussion, a secure upload of your records and telehealth video when an evaluation is involved. Our office is in Colorado, and we proudly serve veterans nationwide, including Houston. Call (844) 368-2757 and we will tell you honestly whether we can help, whether you are inside the Loop, out toward Katy and Sugar Land, or up past Conroe and The Woodlands.

The Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center in the Texas Medical Center is one of the busiest VA hospitals in the country, and it is supported by community clinics in Katy, Sugar Land, Tomball, Conroe and beyond, so most Houston area veterans already have records inside the VA system.
See VA Houston health care locationsWith a large Army, Navy, Air Force and Reserve population plus decades of Gulf War and post-9/11 deployments, the claims we see most from Houston veterans involve tinnitus and hearing loss, PTSD and other mental health conditions, sleep apnea, back and knee conditions, and respiratory conditions tied to burn pits and other deployment exposures.
