When to ask for a specialist second opinion on pelvic pain — Clinical guide

Medically reviewed by Dr Renaud Bollens — Professor of Urology

Clinical guide

A clear clinical guide to pelvic pain second opinion, written for patients in New York and across the United States who are still looking for a straight answer.

Ask for a second opinion when your pain has lasted more than six months, when investigations have been normal, when treatment has been symptomatic only, or when nobody has yet named a mechanism for your pain.

A useful second opinion is not just another appointment. It is a structured review of every previous investigation, imaging study and treatment response by someone who sees this pattern constantly.

Patients from the United States regularly send their records to Pelvic Institute for review before travelling. Most of the work — history, records, imaging, planning — happens before anyone books a flight.

If this describes your situation, a specialist review of pelvic pain second opinion can be arranged remotely from anywhere in the United States.
