{"title":"Mayo Clinic","summary":"Cancer second opinions through Mayo Clinic’s appointment service, with a separate private second-opinion pathway at Mayo Clinic Healthcare in London.","body":"## What they do\n\nYou can self-refer for a cancer second opinion or ask your oncologist for a referral. The U.S. cancer appointment service accepts domestic and international requests. London also offers cancer second opinions.\n\n## Who it’s for\n\nPatients seeking another cancer assessment who can meet the relevant campus’s clinical and appointment requirements.\n\n## How to start\n\nRequest cancer care through the U.S. appointment service, or contact the London second-opinion service. State your location and ask whether a visit is required.\n\n## Cost and insurance\n\nRequest a campus-specific estimate and check insurance and authorizations. U.S. and London services have separate arrangements.\n\n## What to check\n\nThese are appointment pathways, not proof of a universally available remote written-review package. Confirm travel, remote eligibility, specialty availability and any additional testing before booking.\n\n## How it fits\n\nMD Anderson likewise uses an appointment-based pathway. If you specifically need a remote written report, compare programs such as UCSF and Dana-Farber.\n\n## Questions I would ask\n\n- Which specialist would review my cancer and the decision I am facing?\n- Does the review include rereading the actual scans and pathology, or only their reports?\n- What will I receive, and how can my oncologist ask follow-up questions?\n\n## Contacts\n\n- Cancer appointment requests: [Mayo Clinic](https://www.mayoclinic.org/departments-centers/mayo-clinic-cancer-center/cancer-care/appointments)\n- Second-opinion guidance from the cancer education center: [Mayo Clinic](https://connect.mayoclinic.org/blog/cancer-education-center/newsfeed-post/tips-for-seeking-a-second-opinion/)\n- London second-opinion service: [Mayo Clinic Healthcare](https://www.mayoclinic.org/uk/specialties/second-opinion)","topics":["expert-support"],"capabilities":["second-opinions"],"organizationType":"academic-center","services":["expert-review"],"secondOpinion":{"coverage":"broad","focus":[],"summary":"Cancer second opinions through Mayo Clinic’s appointment service, with a separate private second-opinion pathway at Mayo Clinic Healthcare in London.","details":"These are appointment pathways, not proof of a universally available remote written-review package.
