HHOM LLC
At Howard’s House of Medicine, You served. You sacrificed. Now it’s my turn to serve you—with a Nexus Letter that tells the truth about your health and your history.
I’m Dr. Howard Friedman, MD—board-certified Internist, wartime veteran, and former VA physician with nearly two decades inside the system. I’ve sat across from thousands of veterans. I’ve seen the denials, the delays, and the deep frustration that comes when your truth is questioned.
That’s why I do this work.
I write Nexus Letters that speak for you—clearly, directly, and with the full weight of evidence behind them. No templates. No outsourcing. Every letter is written by me, start to finish, with the same attention I would give my own brothers- and sisters-in-arms.
But I don’t stop there. Through educational blogs, I break down the complex medical and bureaucratic maze veterans face. These posts aren’t fluff—they’re tools: clear, honest, and rooted in both medicine and service.
If you’ve been denied, dismissed, or just feel stuck in the claims process, I’m here—not as a stranger behind a desk, but as a fellow veteran who knows what it means to fight for what’s right.
This is my way of continuing to serve.

A Lifeline for Veterans Navigating VA Claims “Ask Dr. Howard was the best decision I made in my disability claim process.” I came to Dr. Howard overwhelmed by the VA system and unsure how to connect the dots between my military exposures and current health conditions. From our very first consultation, I felt heard. Dr. Howard not only listened—he understood. As a veteran himself and a former VA physician, he knew exactly what was needed to support my claim. His Nexus Letter was detailed, clear, and grounded in medical evidence. More importantly, it was written in a way that the VA could not ignore. He explained the ‘as likely as not’ standard, helped me understand the link between my conditions and service, and delivered a letter that reflected both compassion and expertise. Thanks to Dr. Howard, I finally feel like I have someone in my corner who gets it. This is not a cookie-cutter service—it’s personal, thorough, and deeply professional. If you’re a veteran struggling with your claim, do yourself a favor: Ask Dr. Howard. — Derrick Sanders U.S. Navy Veteran, Gulf War Era
