Review military service treatment records, civilian medical records, and supporting documentation. Perform diagnostic evaluations consistent with VA Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs) and VA guidelines. Objectively assess and document clinical findings related to claimed conditions (e.g., musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, neurological, psychiatric, respiratory).
