From the Publisher:

Whether your disorder is life-threatening, chronic, painful, annoying, or merely embarrassing, there are usually several alternative treatments. In twenty-eight chapters covering every common condition, Dr. Isadore Rosenfeld offers detailed information on why, when, and where to ask for a second opinion -- and how you can possibly avoid unnecessary surgery.

You need a second opinion when:

You develop a lump in the thyroid gland and your doctor advises immediate surgery.

You sinusitis is being treated with frequent irrigation and drainage.

Your fatigue and lassitude are said to be caused by low blood pressure.

You have cramps in your legs at night and your feet are always cold. You're told it is poor circulation.

Your ulcer is not responding to medical treatment and psychotherapy is advised.

These and many other medical situations require a Second Opinion.
