Second Opinions
Are you wondering if a heart disease diagnosis you were given is accurate? Do you want to know every treatment option for your condition? Would you feel better to hear that a second physician supports your recommended treatment plan?
The UF Health Cardiovascular Center offers knowledgeable second opinions for patients who have received an initial diagnosis of a heart or vascular illness. You can arrange a consultation with an expert cardiologist or surgeon who can give you peace of mind when it comes to managing your heart health and moving forward with treatment.
Why a second opinion?

- Learn about alternative treatments that may be effective for you.
- Determine if you could benefit from less-invasive treatment options than the one you were initially given.
