Cardiac surgery second opinion

Understand the operation before you commit to it.

A cardiac surgeon and cardiologist independently review the required records and imaging, then co-sign one patient-facing report.

Built for patients facing bypass, valve, aortic, redo, or combined operations who want the proposed plan explained before consent.

No referral or records are needed to request a call. Do not include records or sensitive medical details in the public form.

The decision, not just the diagnosis

Three questions worth answering before consent.

A useful second opinion makes the reasoning visible—even when it confirms the plan already proposed.

01

Is surgery the right next step?

See how the diagnosis, symptoms, testing, imaging, and proposed operation fit together.

02

Which approach fits the record?

Put open, minimally invasive, catheter-based, medical, or monitoring paths in clinical context.

03

What deserves another conversation?

Identify uncertainty, missing material, and focused questions to take back to your treating team.

One usable written opinion

A clear report for the conversation that comes next.

The report organizes what the physicians reviewed, where their reasoning leads, and what remains uncertain.

  1. 01

    Start with a conversation

    Tell us what you were told and what still feels unclear. No referral or records are needed to request a call.

  2. 02

    Complete the case material

    With your authorization, the records team can help gather the reports, notes, testing, and imaging required for review.

  3. 03

    Receive the written opinion

    Both physicians complete their independent review and co-sign the patient-facing report.

DELIVERY WINDOWDelivered within 24 hours after all required records and imaging are received and confirmed complete.

Written first. The written report does not include a live physician consultation. A live physician discussion may be arranged separately when appropriate and available.

YOUR CARE

Your treating team stays in charge.

Treating clinicians remain responsible for examination, diagnosis, procedure candidacy, prescriptions, emergency care, follow-up, and treatment.

WHITEGLOVEMD does not order tests, prescribe, direct treatment, or replace ongoing care.
