Healthcare is changing; now more than ever people are often faced with complex health issues and decisions. There are several reasons you or a loved one may be considering a second opinion:
You may not be confident that the correct diagnosis has been made. You may have unanswered questions after speaking to your doctor or you don’t fully understand the information you’ve been given. You may not have had a positive experience. You’ve been told that there is nothing more that can be done. We offer a specialist second opinion service, both face-to-face and remotely for patients from all over the world, covering everything from complex circumstances to deciding on treatment options. Please be reassured that you are within your right to have a second opinion and we are here to guide you through the process
