Serving Those Who Served

  • Veterans Helping Veterans MD is a physician-led practice that supports veterans with medical documentation needed for disability claims.

    We provide structured medical evaluations based on clinical review, medical records, and case understanding.

    Our goal is to support veterans, attorneys, and service organizations with clear and reliable medical documentation used in VA disability cases.

    Each case starts with a full review of the veteran’s history and ends with a well-supported medical opinion based on evidence and clinical judgment.

    We also serve veterans from different regions, including California and Maryland, as part of our nationwide support.

  • Your service didn't end when you hung up the uniform, and neither did the values of integrity and duty you live by. We honor that legacy by providing veteran-to-veteran medical nexus letters and DBQs grounded in the same loyalty you showed our country. Expert medical evidence, backed by a shared bond.

  • Veterans Helping Veterans MD was founded on the belief that veterans deserve physician-led evaluations from someone who understands both military service and the importance of accurate medical documentation. As a veteran and physician, Dr. Kenneth Hammonds brings that perspective to every case, providing careful, credible medical-legal evaluations for veterans and for the attorneys and VSOs who support them. Our mission is to deliver clear, professional, and thoughtful work rooted in respect, integrity, and service.
