Get a second opinion from a urogynecologist

Decisions about your pelvic health are important. Getting a second opinion not only provides more information about your condition, but it can help you feel more confident in the doctor and the care plan you choose. Consider getting a second opinion if:

Your diagnosis or prognosis is unclear
You’ve been told you have a rare or life-threatening condition
You’d like to explore other treatment options
Your treatment options are costly or risky
You want to hear an opinion from another specialist
Your insurance requires a second opinion

Before your appointment, check with your insurance company to find out if a second opinion is covered. We can request your medical records from your doctor on your behalf, so they can be shared with your care team before your arrival.

If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, go directly to the ER or call 911.
