Getting a second opinion: Thoughts on this approach?

Thank you Colleen. Will they do virtual second opinion?

My biggest concern is ensuring the proper diagnosis of the cyst to begin with. I would really like a center who sees a higher volume of these to look at my images to see if they concur with the cyst diagnosis. I also wonder if my local medical center has the same diagnostic capabilities of a larger center.

Thank you again. I appreciate your response.

Fiona,
Mayo Clinic welcomes both new and existing patients for virtual and in-person care in adherence with federal and state executive orders and guidance.

Virtual care is available for out-of-state patients IF the provider you are seeing is licensed in the state where you live.

Video and phone visits also can be great options for appointments before, after or in place of face-to-face care. Appointment coordinators will recommend a virtual visit if it best fits your individual needs.

I would call and inquire.
