Although he is 18, I still went with him. DS must’ve done a good enough job on his statements for explanations of YES to not need further explanation.

DS brought copies of doctor’s notes clearing all activities after a major surgery a few years ago, orthodontist form stating braces are coming off this month, and Allergist stating DS doesn’t have asthma after MCT. We were not expecting them to make copies, only just wanted to show we have documentation but Doctor said he’d fax and send to Concorde along with his exam results.

Hoping it doesn’t take long before DS finds out anything.

So far it’s been a positive process for him. He arrived early to both his optometrist exam and physical and was seen right away.

Doc wished him good luck at VMI and in his Air Force career. Now that’s putting the cart before the horse
 
I don't want to burst your bubble, but its not up to the examining doctor to go thru the health history that you provided. It may help, but be prepared to resubmitt everything again thru DODMERB. Its a waiting game only on their time schedule. Best wishes!

I figured as much because I’ve not read anywhere that doctors do that. We have plenty of copies at the ready. We’re still prepared for possible DQ, remedial, AMI or whatever else they throw at us.
 
Update: DS was notified that he’s medically qualified!! I know our situation seems to not be the norm because the doc uploaded additional info to DoDMERB for us though.

I am so beyond excited for DS!

He’s ready for VMI!
