    Why consult American Oncology for a second opinion on oral cancer?

    Feel empowered and prepared to make decisions about your treatment and diagnosis

    Discuss

    When diagnosed with cancer it is always a good idea to get a second opinion. There is a chance you could have been misdiagnosed. Since the final diagnosis determines the specific treatment that a patient will receive, an oral cancer specialist 's second opinion is a good idea for patients facing major cancer treatment.

    Diagnose

    Most patients are concerned about telling their doctor that they are going to get a second opinion but they should not. Most doctors are comfortable with the request, since patients often seek a second opinion. Ask the referral doctor to share your medical records, original x-rays and results of the tests. You can also contact the insurance company to know about what the policy covers before you get a second opinion.

    Detail

    The doctor who gives a second opinion will ask for the results of any oral cancer tests or treatments you have already had to avoid repeated tests. It also helps get all the images of your latest imaging tests. Typical test images include a computed tomography scan or a CT scan. They may also take pathology slides from the initial biopsy. The doctor chooses the best possible options for treating your oral cancer based on all the information provided.

    Develop

    Getting a second opinion is very common during the course of your cancer treatment. Before the treatment begins, it is always a good idea to get a second opinion, because a second opinion might change the diagnosis, and therefore alter your treatment. You can get a second opinion at any point during the treatment.

    During the cancer care, it is advised to ask for a second opinion in these instances such as:

    • After the diagnosis
    • Before surgery
    • Planning treatments after surgery
    • To change the course of your treatment during the ongoing treatment
    • If you forget to ask for second opinion prior to treatment, you can get it after completing the treatment
