Good Morning.
I was medically retired on 29 May 2017. I was placed on TDRL for MDD and anxiety. Does it matter where I continue my treatment? Do I have to see a VA psychologist / psychiatrist or can I see a civilian provider? I would prefer to see a local, civilian provider. I am not sure about how the TDRL re-evaluation works, I am not sure where the appointment will held and what I need to bring with me. All I know right now is that I am supposed to continue with treatment of my conditions. I have heard from other people that I have to go to the VA and then another person told me that I can see a civilian doctor. I want to do the right thing and not mess up my re-evaluation by not being prepared or not following a process. Thank you.
