Second opinion consults

UCLA physicians recognize the importance of presenting all the possible options for a patient’s medical care. UCLA’s second opinion consultation program can connect you with UCLA physicians and surgeons. Our experts will review your patient’s medical history and diagnostic results with you. We are happy to support and complement your treatment recommendations.

We also offer opportunities for continuing education, such as online courses, tailored to different types of medical professionals of all levels of experience.
