  2. Cardiac Second Opinion is a website which has been designed specifically for those who are seeking for the second opinion after being advised an intervention which they are not sure of. In India, after visiting a heart doctor or surgeon, he likely gets a different opinion which makes him confused about which treatment he should go for. To fill this vacuum, Cardiac Second Opinion is designed by making use of algorithms based on American Heart Association and European Cardiological Society which have made guidelines which dictate the treatment as per the disease and not the doctor. Cardiac Second Opinion has a full team comprising Specialist Interventional Cardiologists, Cardiac Surgeons, Bariatric Cardiologists, Electrophysiologists, and Non-Interventional Cardiologists (for treatment with medicines only) on its panel.
