Surgeries are common. About 313 million surgical procedures a year are performed worldwide. But for many us, going under the knife is a big decision. We need answers to several questions before making up our mind to undergo a surgery.
Do I really need surgery ? Is the diagnosis right ? Who is the right surgeon ? What is the cost of surgery ? Which is the right hospital ? Which is the right destination ? ……….and so on.
To find answers, we randomly search for surgeons or hospitals online. We try to get multiple medical opinions, cost estimates and other relevant information. For doing this, we repeatedly share our personal and medical information on different platforms and websites. After this, we follow-up with them for the necessary information. Now this can be a very long, cumbersome, repetitive and not so reliable process. At times we may seek opinions from those who are not qualified enough to give medical opinions. When it comes to surgery, the right people to give us opinions are the qualified and experienced surgeons. Hence finding the right surgeons is the first and most important step. Now, since there is information gap and also misinformation in healthcare market, finding specialist surgeons is a big challenge.
As patients, we need an easier way to find surgeons and get their opinions before deciding to undergo a surgery or choose a surgeon for surgery. We should be able to independently find surgeons, avail medical opinions from multiple surgeons and then choose a surgeon for surgery. Further our options should not be limited to a particular city or country. It may happen so that, a better option may exist beyond boundaries. As patients we want right information and more options to feel empowered.
