    Got the remedials

    Dear Sir: Thank you again for all of your advice. My son received a call from his representative tonight that he will be offered an appointment to West Point. I cannot tell you how excited he is. He also has an offer of appointment from the US Coast Guard Academy. He has not heard from...

    Great News My son just told me that he got his clearances - he is medically qualified for USMA, USMMA, USCGA and commission qualified (?) for USAFA. I am ecstatic and so is he. I have called the MDs who wrote letters, the PT office that made copies just for him so he would not have to wait...

    how long should it take? Dodmerb received the documents last week. How long should it take before my son hears if he is cleared or not from the remedials? He is checking the website daily. I thought I read that it could be at least 30 days before he hears anything.

    It's okay, I don't take it as rude. I am just looking for the facts and since West Point is aware of Dodmerb's findings, I did not know if it works both ways. Just trying to be as informed as possible. Thank you for all your help.

    LOA and Waivers My son received a Letter of Assurance from West Point. I sent off all of his records for the remedials yesterday. How does the LOA effect the remedials or does it?

    Got the remedials

    remedials I thought that I explained to the Doctor who wrote about discontinuing my son's ADHD medication that he needed to mail the letter back to me. However, his office said that they mailed it directly to Dodmerb. Is this a problem? Should I have them send me a copy and then send it in...

    Got the remedials

    As a courtesy I just want to let you know that the PT office called me and the evening office manager had copied the files for me and I have picked them up. They wanted to help out my son. Being courteous when you deal with people always helps get you further. Thank you for answering so...

    Oh my the remedials I hope Dodmerb is easier to deal with than the doctors who my son saw. The orthopedist's records do not have a written statement saying that my son was fully recovered nor that he could go back to gym- He went back in January and last visit to the Ortho was in October. MD...

    body fat index My son has now received a form about body fat. He is 72" tall and weighs 215 lbs. I think that his neck is 16" and abdomen measures 38". Will his body fat be okay? He does play football so he is solid.

    Again, the remedials Dear Sir, I am collecting the information that DODMERB needs - my son found out quickly that he still needs a parent to collect his medical records. There are three altogether. Just want to make sure that I have this right - I wait until I get all of the info then send...

    Sir: could you clarify this request: R230.00 - DODMERB is asking for copies of all patient visits to doctor for ADHD- the MD would like to know if it is okay to send a letter stating start date, finish date, medication started, medication finished, and when diagnosis was removed. It has been 2...
