All questions · The first few days

Should I get a second opinion?

Yes, if you want one. It is normal, it is your right, and it does not offend us. Good doctors expect it, especially before a big decision.

We will send your notes and scans so you do not repeat tests. Ask your team to do it, and ask how long it will take, because that is the part that can add delay.

Written by two physicians. Checked against patient information from the US National Cancer Institute and Cancer Research UK.
