Recent testimonial

“I feel very lucky that Best Doctors were there when I needed them most. I had been suffering from stomach and back pain for three years. I had had every test available but nothing was diagnosed. It seemed to me that no one was paying proper attention. It was only when I had the guidance of the Best Doctors service that I was correctly diagnosed with two aneurisms and had the emergency surgery that saved my life.

Getting a second opinion is a very good idea. It cuts out all the mystery. It’s great to know that you can call someone to find out if your doctors are doing the very best they can. If Best Doctors had not been there I would not be here to tell the tale.”

- David Chambers
