Oncology Second Opinion in Israel
Coordinated access to specialists in Israel for an independent second opinion on an existing diagnosis or treatment plan.
Why patients seek a second opinion abroad.
A second opinion gives patients and families an independent perspective on a diagnosis or proposed treatment plan, before decisions are made. International patients often seek this from specialists outside their home healthcare system.
RKM INTL coordinates this process: matching your case with the appropriate specialist in Israel, and managing communication between you and the reviewing institution.
A Broader International Perspective.
One of the potential advantages of seeking an oncology second opinion in Israel is the ability to have an existing diagnosis and treatment plan reviewed within an international clinical environment. Where relevant, Israeli specialists may consider both leading European and U.S. oncology guidelines alongside the individual characteristics of the patient and disease.
What a second opinion review includes.
Document and Case Review
Your records and diagnosis are reviewed ahead of specialist evaluation.
Specialist Evaluation
An independent evaluation is carried out by the matched specialist.
Summary and Recommended Pathway
Findings and a recommended pathway are communicated back to you.
Beyond the second opinion.
A second opinion is a discrete step — an independent evaluation, on its own. If you choose to proceed with treatment in Israel based on that evaluation, RKM INTL can continue to coordinate the pathway: planning, communication with the treating institution, and any follow-up care. Treatment decisions remain with your treating physicians throughout.
What patients and families ask us.
What does a second opinion review include?
Your existing diagnosis, records, and treatment plan are reviewed and matched to the appropriate specialist in Israel for an independent evaluation.
Will RKM INTL review my case directly?
No. RKM INTL coordinates the review — the evaluation itself is carried out by the specialist your case is matched with.
What do I need to submit?
A brief first-contact enquiry is enough to start — please don't include diagnosis details or medical records at this stage. See Request Medical Coordination in Israel for how to reach out.
How is confidentiality handled?
Case materials are reviewed with discretion and shared only with the specialist relevant to your case.
Case coordination is overseen by a Medical Tourism Agent registered with the Israeli Ministry of Health (Registration No. 816979) and Certified Complex Medical Event Manager.
