A Careful Approach to HIMS
Dr. Auren Weinberg brings medical experience to aviation medicine and understands that HIMS cases can require careful documentation, evaluations, and communication. As a HIMS pilot evaluation examiner, he works with pilots whose certification circumstances may involve substance- or alcohol-related conditions, mental health considerations, monitoring requirements, or other matters requiring FAA attention. His approach emphasizes reviewing medical information, understanding the pilot’s circumstances, and helping ensure documentation is prepared for the certification process. At AvDoc51, the goal is to make each appointment organized and clear while giving pilots an opportunity to discuss questions and understand what information may be needed. HIMS evaluations can involve steps, and Dr. Weinberg provides guidance throughout the process while following applicable FAA requirements and certification procedures carefully.
Our approach is centered on aviation medical certification and the specific considerations that can arise during complex individual HIMS cases.
We help you understand the records, reports, and supporting information that may be important for complete FAA review and certification.
We explain the process, discuss questions, and help you understand what may be required at different stages of your certification.
Every HIMS case is different, so your circumstances, history, and certification needs receive careful, individual consideration throughout the evaluation process.
By submitting you agree to be contacted by AvDoc51 about your appointment. We never share your information.
The HIMS program supports certain pilots who need specialized evaluation, monitoring, or documentation for FAA medical certification. HIMS AMEs are trained to handle substance-, alcohol-, and certain mental health-related certification cases. An FAA HIMS program AME may provide evaluation, sponsorship, and monitoring, while some cases require further FAA review. Requirements vary, so complete medical records and supporting documentation are important.
