Prostate Cancer Second Opinion

Benefits of a Second Opinion

You’ve been through the hard part — hearing your diagnosis of cancer. Now, it’s time to explore your options, confirm your diagnosis, learn about all the treatments available and make informed decisions about your health and future.

Here a few of the benefits of seeking a second opinion at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin:

  • Rapid access to appointments — We’re committed to scheduling your visit within five business days of your request and to offering an evaluation in one visit in most cases.
  • Confirmation of your diagnosis — A second opinion can confirm the diagnosis you’ve already received or result in a different diagnosis.
  • Broad range of treatment options — Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin offer the full spectrum of advanced treatment options, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy.
  • Full participation in the decision making process — We’ll help you develop a treatment plan that fits your life and your goals.
  • Treatment by nationally and internationally known prostate cancer experts — Our physicians are leading the way in prostate cancer care and treatment.
  • Access to a whole team of experts — If you feel you need to talk with more than one specialist to answer your questions, we’ll do our best to make that happen in one visit. The depth of training, technology, expertise and resources of the Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin Prostate Cancer team means you’re more likely to have a better outcome the first time around — with less chance of your prostate cancer recurring.
