What were the charges?
I am looking to have someone look at my past MRIs and see what an "expert" thinks is happening, or not happening.

I am a Hopkin's patient so there was no charge at all. I believe- at least in Maryland, you can request a new pt appointment with a Hopkins specialist, and then request a second opinion. My insurance (Cigna but I had Blue Cross before) was accepted so there was no out of pocket expenses or even a co-payment. Again, I may have had some advantage since I was already an established Hopkin's patient.
Why not go to the Hopkins website and see if you can schedule an appointment with the urology department and see what happens

At one point, I also get another opinion from Georgetown. I scheduled online and had a video session
