When should I consider an online second opinion evaluation?

A second opinion is worth considering if you receive a diagnosis of a serious illness and want to learn more about your options for treatment, or if you have any uncertainty about the accuracy of the diagnosis you have received or whether the treatment plan you have been given is the optimal one for you.

Constance can review your diagnosis and treatment options to determine what’s right for you. She follows evidence-based medicine and guidelines and will give you an objective expert opinion on your possible diagnosis and your options for further evaluation and/or treatment.

What information do I need to provide for an online second opinion evaluation?

To ensure Constance has the information she needs to provide a comprehensive second-opinion report, you should obtain your medical records, including history notes, lab results, and imaging-test information from your current providers. You have a right to request and receive your own medical records.

Once she receives the information, Constance carefully reviews the details of your condition and your provider’s diagnosis and treatment recommendations. She could request additional information to ensure her report is complete.

What’s included in a second opinion evaluation?

Constance creates a report that could agree with your current provider’s diagnosis and treatment plan. If she determines other options are available for your condition, her report will include a different diagnosis or recommendations for additional diagnostic or treatment options.

Once you receive your report, you can submit any additional questions you have about Constance’s recommendations.

What are the benefits of an online second opinion?

After receiving a diagnosis of a serious illness, a second opinion with Constance can give you additional guidance and peace of mind about your overall health and the direction in which your health plan is proceeding.

You can benefit from a second opinion if you’re unsure about the accuracy of a diagnosis or need assistance in exploring your options for treatment, especially if there are several treatments to choose from.

Online second opinions are especially convenient if you live outside the San Antonio area but still want another professional to weigh in on your condition.
