Document all findings in a thorough, timely, and compliant manner using approved templates and electronic systems.
Maintain familiarity with VA C&P protocols, including required exam elements and documentation standards.

Uphold strict standards of professionalism, confidentiality, and unbiased evaluation.
Qualifications
Board certified or board eligible in Neurology.
