Referrals and second opinions

We welcome your referrals and second opinions for catheterization. Our cardiologists receive requests for several hundred second opinions each year. While many of these patients are never treated directly by Boston Children’s cardiologists, we review all cases promptly. And if families request a visit with us, we gladly see them.

This approach allows referring cardiologists and families to benefit from the extensive experience of our cardiac catheterization staff, and also improves our understanding of unusual forms of congenital and acquired heart disease.

You can request a second opinion through the Benderson Family Heart Center online or by calling 1-844-354-2160.
