Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a rating in excess of 10 percent for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as the evidence did not show considerable impairment of health.
The deciding factor: The November 2023 VA examiner specifically noted that the Veteran's GERD symptoms, while frequent, were not productive of considerable impairment of his health.
