Spine Surgery as an example:
The second opinion of an experienced neurosurgeon frequently deviates from the initial recommendations when spine surgery is recommended.
Whether you’ve just been diagnosed with a complex neurosurgical condition or have been told you need invasive surgery, the next logical step is to seek a second opinion from an MDVISIT CLINIC affiliate neurosurgeon.
Our affiliate orthopedic hospital, Arkansas Surgical Hospital, received the 2023 Press Ganey Human Experience Guardian of Excellence Award® and ranked in the top 5% in the United States. Arkansas Surgical Hospital (ASH) today announced that it has been named a 2023 Human Experience (HX) Guardian of Excellence Award® winner by Press Ganey for the fifth year in a row. Jan 28, 2024
No matter how much you trust your primary care provider, remember that your doctor is human; like you, they are bound to make mistakes. For this reason, doctors often ask their fellow doctors for their input.
If you sense something isn’t quite right about your diagnosis for your neurological problem, trust your intuition and seek a second opinion.
Researchers suggest that up to 66 percent of patients who seek a second opinion have their original diagnoses refined, and some 21 percent have their diagnoses changed. Additionally, statistics show that roughly 12 million adults in the United States alone get wrong diagnoses every year, and half of those can cause potentially serious harm to the patient. Seeking a second opinion essentially keeps you from becoming a statistic.
Given the breadth of orthopedic doctors' knowledge and training in diagnosing and treating the full range of neurosurgical problem, being under their care means you are much more likely to achieve your desired treatment outcome. This is also important for your peace of mind.
After a comprehensive evaluation of your symptoms, health history, current health status, and other factors, your MDVISIT CLINIC neurosurgeon will devise an appropriate treatment plan and recommend all the necessary interventions or strategies to point you in the right direction.
When facing a major medical decision, it is natural to want to know about your treatment options, their pros and cons, their side effects and risks, and which one is most suitable for your particular situation, among other important things.
A good neurosurgeon doctor can provide you with a thorough explanation and help you weigh your options, ultimately helping you make a well-informed decision.
After you purchase your International Virtual 2nd Opinion, your assigned case manager will communicate with you via mobile chat, video chat, phone calls, and email — all with translation in your native language.
You will meet your physician in a video call in your native language to discuss your results, and you will receive a written report in our native language.
Please be aware that the services offered on this platform are with U.S. physicians via a virtual 2nd opinion service. Diagnosis may differ when the physician has had the opportunity to provide an in-person examination. The absence of the in-person examinations can affect the accuracy of the diagnosis and resulting opinion. Please also be aware that a virtual 2nd opinion will not establish a provider-patient relationship. The provide patient relationship can only be established when the patient signs a consent to treatment form in the physician’s physical clinic location in the United States.
