Do doctors like it when you go get a second orthopedic opinion?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
A second opinion: You are entitled to it. I wouldn't worry about whether or not doctors like it. Most doctors understand and welcome it. If you have any doubts or concerns about your orthopedic treatment, don't hesitate to get a second opinion from another orthopedic surgeon.

I see many: I have many referrals that are for a second opinion. Your physician should not mind, and it is your body.
