A second opinion that
changes everything

An independent review of your diagnosis and treatment plan by specialists who were not involved in your original care. It either confirms that your current plan is right — or shows you options you have not been offered yet.

Yes. The review of your case and the written opinion are free of charge and come with no obligation. If you later choose to be treated at Acibadem, you receive a personalized treatment plan with a transparent cost estimate before any commitment.

Most written opinions are delivered within 5–7 working days once your documents are complete. Urgent cases can be prioritised — just mark the urgency in the form.

Anything relevant: pathology and radiology reports, imaging (MRI, CT, PET), blood tests, discharge summaries and current medication lists. The more complete your file, the more precise the opinion.

No. The entire second-opinion process is remote: you upload your documents, our specialists review them, and you receive the written opinion wherever you are. Travel only becomes relevant if you decide to be treated here.

All major specialties — oncology, cardiology and heart surgery, orthopedics, neurology and neurosurgery, general surgery, urology, gynecology, organ transplantation and more. When a case touches several disciplines, it is reviewed by a multidisciplinary board rather than a single doctor.

Specialists who focus on your exact condition, drawn from Acibadem’s hospitals. Complex cases go to multidisciplinary boards, and every opinion is checked by a qualified physician before it reaches you.

A clear assessment of your diagnosis, an evaluation of your current treatment plan and the options available to you — and, if treatment at Acibadem is appropriate, a personalized plan with a transparent cost estimate.

Yes. All uploads are encrypted in transit, accessible only to the reviewing team, and handled in line with KVKK and GDPR. Your data is used solely for your review.

Our international patient team supports you in more than 20 languages, helps you understand every part of the opinion, and answers your follow-up questions.

Share them as they are. Our team works with international medical documents every day, and if anything essential is missing or unclear, we will tell you exactly what is needed.

Yes — many requests come from relatives. Select “a family member” in the form and share their documents with their knowledge and consent; the process works exactly the same way.

The opinion explains where the assessment differs and why, in language you can understand — giving you informed questions to discuss with your own doctor. The decision always remains yours.

No. It is an expert review based on the documents you provide, intended to inform your decisions. A definitive diagnosis and treatment always require an in-person medical evaluation.

Upload reports and images through the secure form — up to 8 MB per file. If your imaging files are larger, your patient coordinator will arrange a secure alternative transfer with you.

Yes. Mark your request as urgent in the form and our team will prioritize it — tell us your timeline and we will do our best to work within it.

No. The review is based only on the documents you choose to share. Nobody is contacted, and you remain in full control of your information.

Your patient coordinator walks you through it and answers your questions. If you choose treatment at Acibadem, we plan everything with you; if not, the opinion is yours to keep — with no obligation either way.

It should not — second opinions are standard practice in modern medicine, especially before major treatment, and good physicians welcome them. This review is confidential, so what you share is entirely your choice.

Use the form at the top of this page — it takes about two minutes — or message us on WhatsApp or call +90 535 876 04 89. A patient coordinator confirms receipt and guides you from there.
