About the service

An independent review of your diagnosis and treatment plan by a specialist who isn’t your primary treating doctor. It can confirm you’re on the right path, suggest modifications, identify a missed diagnosis, or open up options you didn’t know existed.
Not at all. It’s a widely respected practice. Most good doctors actively encourage it, especially for serious or surgical conditions. Your health must come first.
Virtually all medical and surgical specialties — from common conditions like diabetes and hypertension to complex cancers, rare neurological disorders, cardiac conditions and multi-system illnesses. If you’re unsure, contact us.

Privacy & security

Yes. We use end-to-end encryption for transmission and storage. Records are accessible only to the assigned specialist and are deleted from active servers after your case is complete (per your consent).

Never. We operate on a strict no-referral-commission policy. Every recommendation is based purely on clinical merit and fit.

The process

Recent and historical lab reports, all imaging (with radiology reports), biopsy/pathology reports, discharge summaries, operative notes, current medications, and any letters between specialists. Share what you have — we’ll work with it.
Standard turnaround is 48–72 hours from the time your case is accepted with complete records. Expedited (24h) review is available.

Yes — book an optional live video consultation as an add-on. Highly recommended for complex cases.

Cost & value

Pricing depends on case complexity and specialty involved. We offer transparent, tiered pricing with no hidden fees. Subsidised reports are available for patients in financial hardship — contact us.
Coverage varies by insurer and policy. We provide all required documentation (reports, invoices) to support claims where applicable.
