Dana Farber online second opinion service

[HopingForTheBest1]

Has anyone used this service, and was it useful?

I do not know about the online second opinion, but I went to Dana Farber (Dr. Taplin) for a second opinion, and will definitely go back again when my ADT stops working to consult about the options, if any, after that. They may have options for me not available elsewhere (clinical trials). Not easy to get an appointment with the very best docs there.

Are you located locally to Dana Farber? For those who are not local, or may have travel related issues, this appears to be a viable second opinion option.

I am not local. I live in Maryland but there are trains. Buses, and flights to Boston

What about Johns Hopkins? Denmead, Antonarakis? I live in Maine and use Dana Farber as my primary, but I actually go to Baltimore once a year to check in with Dr. Antonarakis.

I don’t know about him

It looks like a great idea and I can't see a downside. How much does it cost?
