What Is Second Opinion?
Our Second Opinion service offers patients the necessary reassurance and peace of mind that can only be offered by a Consultant Radiologist with over 35 years of experience. By either confirming the medical diagnosis or suggesting an alternative one backed up by the necessary tests, the patient will have a thorough and comprehensive understanding of his/her diagnosis.
Who Should Seek Second Opinion?
-
Patients who are in doubt about their medical diagnosis
-
Patients who have undergone several rounds of medical scans and tests with inconclusive reports
-
Patients who have been on long-term treatment without much progress (ex. physiotherapy, pain management)
-
Patients who were recommended a life-changing treatment or therapy (ex. surgery, radiation therapy etc.)
-
Patients who seek an independent unbiased confirmation of a particular diagnosis
-
Patients who have been diagnosed with a very rare medical condition
