When an Additional Clinical Perspective May Be Helpful
Choose the Doctor Level That Fits Your Situation
Both options include a 30-minute online consultation with a hospital doctor. The difference is the physician’s seniority and experience level.
Experience figures describe the typical participating physician profile and are not a guarantee for every assignment. Experience figures are cumulative and may include outpatient consultations and surgical cases led, participated in, or completed. Outpatient encounters are cumulative clinical visits, not unique patients, diagnoses, success rates, or guaranteed outcomes.
