"True healing begins when your experiences are validated—and when the right support walks beside you. Every journey to health deserves both."

The wounds you carry may not show,

But still, they shape the life you know.

A silent war beneath the skin,

Where healing waits to be let in.

Through truth and care, the path is clear—

You're not alone; we walk you near.

---Dr. Howard Friedman MD

We are a universe unto ourselves.Each of us is a uniquely engineered masterpiece—vibrating, electric, eternal. Our bodies, our minds, our spirits: they are shaped by genetics, molded by environment, and marked by experience. No two people are alike—especially not those who have served.

At HHOM LLC, we understand that health is not just about treatment—it's about being heard. For veterans, especially, that starts with recognition: your injuries, your conditions, your struggles are real. That’s where expert documentation comes in.

A Veteran-Centered Approach

Dr. Howard Friedman, MD, founder of HHOM LLC, is a physician and Army veteran with decades of experience in both military and VA healthcare. He knows that for many veterans, the hardest part of the disability process is proving what’s already known deep inside: your service changed you.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, mental health challenges, sleep disorders, or the long tail of trauma, connecting your current condition to your time in uniform can be the turning point in your path to recovery. That’s what Nexus Letters are for—and that’s what we specialize in.

What We Offer:

• Expert Nexus Letters – Evidence-based, individualized medical opinions connecting your condition to your service.

• Preventative Health Care Consultation

• Ask Dr. Howard - Written or Live Consultation

  
  
  
  

Why It Matters

Behind every claim is a life—and often, a body in pain. Most chronic conditions, whether physical or mental, stem from inflammation, injury, or prolonged stress. Addressing these requires more than prescriptions. It starts with recognition. Acknowledgment. Support.

That’s where we come in.

More Than Paperwork

We believe that true healing begins when you’re seen. And that means more than just being a file number or a claim code. At HHOM LLC, we don’t just fill out forms—we advocate, we educate, and we care.

We know that navigating the system is difficult. That careers have left lasting impacts. That suppressed pain—physical, emotional, and psychological—can fuel a lifetime of inflammation and dysfunction. We also know that with the right documentation and support, doors begin to open.

Whether you’re a veteran looking for validation and compensation, an attorney seeking clarity for a client, or an insurance provider needing unbiased review—we’re here to help.

A Final Word

You deserve to be heard. You deserve to be helped. And you deserve a team that understands the cost of service—not just on paper, but in real life.

Let HHOM LLC be your guide on the journey back to health and recognition.
