Get a second opinion from an orthopedic specialist or neurosurgeon
Whether you’re dealing with joint or back pain or you're considering surgery, there’s a lot to think about. If you’re looking for a second opinion, we can help connect you with the right orthopedic doctor or neurosurgeon. Ask if a telehealth or online visit is available for your second opinion appointment.
Before your appointment, check with your insurance company to find out if a second opinion is covered or required. Our team can request your medical records from your doctor on your behalf, so that they can be shared with your care team before your arrival.
