When should you seek second opinions? If you have been diagnosed with an illness, it is common that you will seek the opinion of a second medical professional. This can help to reassure you and ensure that all of your treatment options have been shared with you. For example one doctor may say that you need surgery, however a second doctor may have a second treatment option that is less invasive.

On some occasions where patients are diagnosed with a rare or complex condition, they may need the second opinions from a number of experts to ensure that their final treatment plan is the best for their condition. In some instances patients decide to travel to different clinics around the world to ensure that they see a doctor that has a strong understanding of how to treat their specific condition.
