How We Can Help

It’s important that you’re as fully prepared as possible when going into your consultation with one of our specialized radiologists. This will not only allow you to maximize your time during your consultation, but give our radiologist enough time to review all of your previous results, diagnosis, images, etc. to make sure that they can give you the most accurate second opinion report as possible.

 

Here’s what you’ll be getting and what you’ll need to do:

 

  You can choose the type of radiology specialist you want to speak with such as Neuroradiology (brain and spine), Orthopedic Radiology (bones and muscles), Body Imaging Radiology (abdomen and pelvis), Pediatric Radiology, Thoracic Radiology (chest and heart), and Mammography (women’s imaging)

 

You will be assigned a radiologist specialist that has 1-2 years of additional training beyond a general radiologist

 

  You can ask up to 3 questions of the consultant doctor inside your written consultation.

 

  You will receive a full, in-depth summary of the questions and answers in your Patient Portal to view, download, or print to share with your doctor at any time

“I have been suffering from low back pain for a long time. I was having such pain that I was at the brink of losing my ability to walk. I had an MRI which offered little clarity. I heard about The Medical Consultant and received a second opinion consult for my MRI which not only gave much more detail than the first report but also clearly identified where the nerve impingement was. The Medical Consult has given me hope.“

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions

Is my health information private and secure?

Ensuring our patients health information is secure and private is one of our top priorities. All personal health information is encrypted end to end, is never shared with or sold to third parties, as well as maintaining all HIPAA compliances.

Does insurance ever cover second opinions?

The Medical Consultant is a self-pay service and does not bill medical insurance. However, you will be provided with a report and at you request we can provide you with a receipt which you can submit to your insurance company. Some insurance companies do pay for second opinion consultations and may be able to reimburse you. However, you should speak with your insurance provider to determine this.

If I have to mail my CD to The Medical Consultant can I have it mailed back to me?

Yes, we can mail your disk back to you. You will have the opportunity to select this choice during your sign up for a second opinion consultation. There is an additional $20 charge. Please contact us during the upload process into your Patient Portal to receive further instructions.

Can I access my Patient Portal from any computer?

Yes, you can access your personal health portal from any internet enabled device by using our secure login with your unique login credentials.

Will you tell me if the quality of my examination was not good enough?

There are great variabilities in the different imaging equipment that imaging providers use. The quality can also be heavily affected by your body weight, body morphology, motion by you during the exam, as well as artifacts that can occur. However, even exams that are not perfect still usually offer some diagnostic information. As part of your second opinion the specialist will let you know if your exam is non diagnostic or of limited value in diagnosing your illness.

What if I can’t get my disk to download into my Patient Portal?

If you are not able to get your disk to transfer the files to our website, then you can always mail the disk and information to us directly. There is a link embedded in our site so that you can select to mail the images to us and it will automatically send someone the next business day to the address you select to pick them up for delivery to us.
