He had ear canal tubes placed as a child, resulting in scar tissue. tubes and scar tissue has been removed; hearing is now compliant. Is there an appeal process for MEPS reexamination?

DoDI 6130.03 in section 5.5 it states any surgery involving the middle and inner ear is a DQ. Your nephew and his recruiter can try to submit a waiver request, but dont put much hope on it.
