Continuity of Care with Our Second Opinion Program

Collaboration can be critical when it comes to your patient receiving the best level of care—and that’s exactly why we offer the Barrow Second Opinion program.

Free of charge to healthcare providers, our Second Opinion program allows you to receive timely reviews of your patient’s complex neurosurgical needs from our team of participating neurosurgeons. In fact, you can expect to receive a Second Opinion report within 7 to 10 business days of submitting your patient’s records and imaging to our secure portal.

If you have never used our second opinion program before, please contact Dariela Molinar at BarrowSecondOpinion@DignityHealth.org or (602) 406-3396 to request your account. If you have an account, please log in: Barrow Provider-to-Provider Second Opinion Login.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a cost to me or my patient?

How long does it take?

Your Second Opinion report will be available electronically within 7 to 10 business days after your submission is complete.
