Abstract
The value of second opinions in medicine is debatable. There are few data on the topic, but it seems that in most cases there is no benefit in terms of outcomes, with some notable exceptions. Improving communication may be a more fruitful area to explore, as most requests for a second opinion appear to result from poor doctor/patient communication.
