Insights
Thinking on patient wellbeing
The partial tear that wasn't operated on
A 38-year-old man was booked for surgery on a partial rotator cuff tear. A medical second opinion tried four months of structured physiotherapy instead. Full function, no operation, tear still there.
Age is not a diagnosis
A 76-year-old's falls and confusion were called age-related dementia, with a care home being arranged. A medical second opinion found bleeding on the brain. Surgery restored her fully. She lives at home.
The wrong kind of diabetes
A 51-year-old's type 2 diabetes kept worsening through every treatment, right up to insulin. A medical second opinion tested antibodies: LADA, an autoimmune diabetes. The right regimen stabilised him.
The burnout that was a muscle
A 29-year-old's exhaustion and muscle pain were treated as burnout, with no improvement. A medical second opinion checked his muscle enzymes: dermatomyositis. Immunosuppression brought full remission.
The "unexplained" loss that had a known cause
After three miscarriages, a 34-year-old was told the cause was unexplained. A medical second opinion found antiphospholipid syndrome. Treatment in her next pregnancy brought a healthy, full-term baby.
