Granted
The Board granted service connection for anxiety and depression, finding it is at least as likely as not due to the Veteran's service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The private opinion from Dr. C.C., Ph.D., was found to be the most probative evidence of record, indicating that the Veteran's anxiety and depression are secondary to his service-connected disabilities.
