Second Opinions

Undergoing surgery, regardless of how minor, is a serious healthcare decision. Being confident in both your diagnosis and surgical team is important. Take advantage of a second opinion from board-certified orthopedic surgeon Dr. Brian Waterman. A second opinion from Dr. Waterman can reinforce the proposed treatment plan or present you with alternative treatment options.

Most physicians welcome a second opinion from a respected peer. A good physician understands a patient’s right to be well-informed in order to understand their healthcare choices.

Imaging Review

After reviewing your case history, MRIs and/or X-rays, Dr. Waterman can provide you with:

  • Additional knowledge about your diagnosis
  • Additional knowledge about treatment options
  • Additional knowledge about the recovery and rehabilitation process

With this additional information, patients are encouraged to compare diagnosis and treatment plans between multiple physicians and confirm their decision for management.
