A serious diagnosis is one of the most disorienting moments in a family's life. Everything moves fast. Physicians make recommendations. Treatment plans are discussed. And most families go along with the first plan they are given, not because it is necessarily right, but because they do not know how to ask for a second opinion without offending the physician, and they do not know how to find the right specialist or get records transferred in time.

This guide walks you through every step.

Created by LaCinda Jones, LCSW, this practical guide covers how to decide when a second opinion is warranted, how to ask your current physician in a way that preserves the relationship, how to identify the right specialist or center for your specific diagnosis, how to request and transfer your medical records efficiently, what to bring to the second opinion appointment, what questions to ask, and what to do when the two opinions differ.

This guide is for anyone who has received a serious or complex diagnosis and wants a second perspective before making treatment decisions.

What you will receive: instant digital download in PDF format, printable on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
