What is a Second Opinion Program?
Getting a second opinion is an important step in your medical journey. We created our Second Opinion Program to empower patients with a deeper understanding of where they are now and confidence in their journey to recovery. Second opinions are a common practice in medicine, and you owe it to yourself to feel secure in what lies ahead. It's time you have confidence you deserve with your pain or spine diagnosis.
