Second Medical Opinion Services

For most patients, what your doctor does works. For some it doesn't.
If you have the need for another evaluation of your medical symptoms and diagnosis, or wish to explore the possibility of another treatment option, getting an authoritative second medical opinion at a leading center of excellence can be challenging. Your own physician may not fully cooperate, or may provide you with a referral to a local, friendly colleague. Even if you know which (leading) expert you wish to consult, it may be tough to connect with this specialist. It also is often very difficult to collect all the materials the expert asks for, to get these materials over to the center of excellence expeditiously, and to then fully understand the expert's recommendations. Typically, significant time and resources are spent in the process, including unnecessary travel and repeat diagnostics, and the result may be less than satisfactory, with lingering questions and open-ended issues.
Raphael Medical is here to help you navigate the system. You are not alone.
Our physicians will work both with your doctor as well as with the expert consultant on a peer-to-peer level. Our staff will facilitate access, manage the process, and remain engaged with you, your doctor and the consulting specialist throughout. In this way, we will secure a complete, understandable and actionable recommendation for you in a very timely manner.
In most cases, the second medical opinion can be rendered remotely as a tele-consultation, and clients do not need to physically travel to the centers of excellence.
