The demand of a second consultation in relation to a specific
neoplasic disease has gradually become a usual practice in
Oncology.
The patient or a member of his/her
family asks for other professionals opinions about aspects
such as the diagnosis, the suitability of the therapeutic
indication or about possible alternatives.
In our hospital, those consultations
can be addressed to:
INSTITUTO ONCOLÓGICO
A/A Kepa Vicario
Aldako-enea, 44
20012 San Sebastián (Gipuzkoa)
Euskadi (España)
Telephone.: 943 328 000
Fax: 943 28 12 78
E-mail: kvicario@oncologico.org |
The petitioner should enclose
as many clinical documents as possible (clinical reports,
pathologic reports, and other complementary explorations)
so that the multidisciplinary unit can assess them.
Once the case has been assessed
the second opinion appointment is fixed. The report with the
conclusions and our teams recommendations will be issued
as quickly as possible.
