Second Opinions

Dr. Ben Mayo Welcomes Second Opinions for Orthopedic Treatment

Making healthcare decisions, particularly concerning surgical interventions, is a significant moment in anyone’s life. Your health and well-being hinge on the choices you make, and that’s why Dr. Ben Mayo believes that it’s crucial for patients to have full confidence in their treatment plans.

The Value of a Second Opinion

In the medical field, second opinions are not just common; they’re often encouraged. Whether you’re dealing with a complex shoulder condition, knee injuries like an ACL tear, or any other orthopedic issue, a second opinion can provide you with additional perspectives that may reaffirm or challenge your current treatment plan. Sometimes, even a slight change in diagnosis or recommended treatment can make a substantial difference in the outcome.
