When to Seek a Second Opinion
It’s not uncommon for someone with a cancer diagnosis to seek a second opinion. Another doctor could recommend a different treatment path or provide a new interpretation of your results. We all want what’s best for our bodies and asking another doctor to take a look at your diagnosis is a way to help have confidence in the treatment plan. When it comes to cancer, we take a personalized approach. If you’d like a second opinion we can help.
