The purpose of a second medical opinion is to contrast a first diagnosis offered by another healthcare professional.
Your customers can check with healthcare professionals to make medical decisions related to their health through the preparation of a report by a specialist in the field involved.
This report will reflect both the initial diagnosis as well as the patient’s proposed therapy in order to contrast this information with the diagnosis.
Asking for a second medical opinion will not involve any unnecessary waiting as the diagnostic tests are already done and it will all be much easier for your customers.
