Mary Her husband’s illness was a terrible shock: Mary's and Michaèl Stories

Mary first used Best Doctors when her husband suffered a massive haemorrhage. He had had no previous symptoms, and it came as a terrible shock. The Best Doctors specialist contacted for the case agreed with the treatment he was following, and Mary and her husband felt great comfort to learn that they were doing the right thing. When Mary used the service for her own case, however, her Best Doctors expert differed completely from what she had been told by her own orthopaedic team said. Further testing confirmed Best Doctors’ findings, which has made a real difference to Mary’s mobility and quality of life. Mary and her husband believe that everyone should have access to Best Doctors for support, reassurance and advice when they need it most.

After further tests, Best Doctors were right. If I had been going according to my orthopaedic team, I would be told ‘sit down, don’t move’ for the rest of my life."
