Doc Bear's Symptom Vault

Your health data belongs to you. Not us. Not anyone else.

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ
Doc Bear's Symptom Vault is a personal documentation tool. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. It does not provide medical diagnoses, clinical decisions, or treatment advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. This app is not a substitute for professional medical care.

Doc Bear's Symptom Vault is an independent application published by Doc Bear Enterprises, LLC. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or operated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) or any other government agency. References to VA regulations, rating criteria, forms, diagnostic codes, and benefit programs are provided for informational purposes only. Only the VA determines eligibility, ratings, and benefits.

Doc Bear's Symptom Vault is a privacy-first symptom and health tracking app built for anyone who needs to document their health journey — whether you're a veteran filing a VA disability claim, a caregiver managing a loved one's care, or anyone living with chronic conditions.

WE NEVER SEE YOUR HEALTH DATA
