Second Opinion

Do I need a Second Opinion for a Neck or Back Surgery?

Before making a decision to undergo any neck or back surgery, it is important for you to consider obtaining a second opinion from a licensed spine specialist. Different physicians will offer varying and sometimes conflicting opinions regarding treatment recommendation and surgery. This means that a second opinion can be valuable and can offer you new insight as it relates to your condition. The additional information you gain from a second opinion will prepare you to make a more educated and informed decision about your condition and treatment options. It is time you take matters into your own hands and take full control by arming yourself with more information that will allow you to make the most appropriate choice of treatment.

In addition to the aforementioned benefits, it is also important to consider a second opinion as it may be required by your insurance company before they cover any treatment.
