Second Opinion
Having the information you need early in the game can change the results.
Throughout our journey with John, we found ourselves frustrated with the lack of accurate and up to date information concerning pediatric brain tumors.
We want to provide you with a consolidated information source and list of cutting edge treatment options for your child so that you can achieve the best possible outcome. The first step in the journey after diagnosis is to find a pediatric brain tumor dream team. A second opinion from one of the following multidisciplinary pediatric brain tumor centers will help you make a fully-educated treatment decision and will give you the peace of mind that is vital for any parent.
