Doctor Letter for Service Dog
Doctor Letter for Service Dog
Dear Ms. Johnson,
I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to provide documentation supporting the necessity of a service dog for my patient, Ms. Emily Roberts, who has been under my care since 2050. As her physician, I am intimately familiar with her medical history and the challenges she faces daily.
Ms. Roberts has been diagnosed with severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and anxiety, which significantly impacts her ability to perform certain daily activities. After careful consideration of her condition and how a service dog could assist, I strongly believe that a service dog would provide invaluable support. The presence of a trained service dog would not only help mitigate the effects of her condition by providing emotional support and calming during anxiety episodes but also offer her greater independence and a higher quality of life.
Service dogs are uniquely trained to perform specific tasks that directly relate to the needs of their handlers. For Ms. Roberts, this includes providing deep pressure therapy during panic attacks, alerting her to changes in her environment, and offering physical assistance to ground her during periods of heightened anxiety. These tasks would help address the limitations presented by her condition and contribute significantly to her overall well-being.
I am confident that a service dog will be a crucial and beneficial addition to Ms. Roberts’ daily life. I recommend this without reservation and am happy to provide any further information or documentation needed to facilitate this process.
Please feel free to contact me at [Your Email] should you require any additional details or wish to discuss this recommendation further.
Thank you for your attention and understanding in this matter.
Sincerely,
Dr. [Your Name], MD
