A second medical opinion, arranged for you
Facing a diagnosis or a big treatment decision and want another specialist to look at it? Tell your Life team. We find a suitable specialist, check credentials, send you the exact price and book it once you say yes.
How a second opinion is arranged
- Tell us what the second opinion is about and where you are.
- We find suitable specialists, compare clinics and check credentials.
- You get options with time, place and exact price.
- You approve, and we book. Results go into your private record.
What Life does, and what the specialist does
Life arranges and coordinates the second opinion. The medical assessment is made by the specialist you see, and decisions about your treatment stay between you and your doctors. Life does not diagnose and does not replace your own doctor.
