What does the available record support?
See how the diagnosis, testing, and proposed plan fit together—and where the record leaves uncertainty.
For patients & families
A clearer way to face a major heart decision.
A cardiac surgeon and cardiologist independently review the required records and imaging, then co-sign one patient-facing report.
No referral or records are needed to request a complimentary call. Share only a brief summary on the request form—not records or sensitive medical details.
Start with the decision
Four questions worth slowing down for.
A useful second opinion should make the reasoning easier to discuss—not make the decision for you.
Which reasonable paths belong in the discussion?
Understand the options and tradeoffs that the materials support, without turning possibility into a recommendation.
Where do the two specialties align?
Bring the cardiac surgery and cardiology perspectives into one patient-facing explanation.
What should I ask my treating team next?
Leave with focused questions for the physicians who know you, examine you, and direct your care.
How the review works
From an unresolved question to one usable report.
The review begins with the decision you are facing. Record collection happens only after you choose to move forward and provide authorization.

Questions for the next conversation
Focused prompts help you discuss the report with your family and treating physicians.
Before you share anything
Two boundaries that should be easy to find.
Keep records off the call-request form.
Please share only a brief summary; do not include records or sensitive medical details there. We will provide a secure way to send records if needed.
Possible emergency? Do not wait.
WHITEGLOVEMD is not an emergency service. Call 911 or seek immediate local emergency care for a possible medical emergency.
Patient questions
What to know before you begin.
These answers define the review. Your clinical questions still belong with the physicians responsible for your care.
Do I need a referral or my records before requesting a call?
No. You can request a complimentary call before gathering records or asking for a referral. If you choose to move forward, the required materials depend on the clinical question and available testing.
Who reviews the case?
A cardiac surgeon and a cardiologist each review the required records and imaging. Both physicians co-sign the patient-facing report.
Does this replace my treating physicians?
No. The review is educational decision support based on the materials provided. Your treating physicians remain responsible for diagnosis, examination, treatment recommendations, prescriptions, and emergency care.
