The Johns Hopkins Medical Second Opinion services allows patients who reside outside the United States to remotely access and consult with a Johns Hopkins physician without having to travel to the Johns Hopkins Medicine campus in Baltimore, Maryland U.S.A. This remote Medical Second Opinion service is a convenient alternative to confirm diagnosis and obtain treatment recommendations from a Johns Hopkins physician without having to leave your home country.
A second opinion from an independent and experienced Johns Hopkins specialist can help you face a challenging situation with confidence and allow you to make an informed decision about treatment options available for your condition.
Based on the medical information provided, a Johns Hopkins Medical Second Opinion will use the latest available knowledge to confirm the diagnosis, review the current treatment plan, and recommend a treatment plan should you decide to travel to Johns Hopkins. Two consultation types have been developed to meet the needs of the international community.
For several subspecialties that demand a longer review period and are complex in nature, a higher fee will be charged. This is due to the additional time spent by the physician to review the case. The need for a Complex Consult will be communicated to you prior to processing your request.
Please send an e-mail to medicalsecondopinion@jhmi.edu to request a Remote Medical Second Opinion or to ask for more information about this service. You can also request a medical second opinion through your Regional Division, in your language of choice.
To request a Remote Medical Second Opinion from a Johns Hopkins Medicine physician, we will ask you for the following:
• Submit your most recent medical records, translated into English
• Radiology report and images
• Pathology slides / paraffin blocks (optional) and applicable reports
