A second opinion is the best way to ensure that your initial diagnosis is accurate, that the recommended treatment strategy is right for you, and that the gynecologic oncologist and other specialists have the training and experience to provide you the best possible outcome.

Why it matters for cervical cancer

A precise and accurate diagnosis, staging, and treatment plan by a team of experts who focus on cervical cancer every day, is essential for determining:

  • The severity of cervical dysplasia, a condition where abnormal cells are present and they may or may not need treatment. An accurate pathology review is key.
  • If you can have fertility-sparing surgical treatment. Most patients with early-stage cervical cancer can undergo surgical approaches that effectively treat the cervical cancer and preserve the uterus.
  • Other options for fertility preservation. Roswell Park’s Oncofertility Program can help guide you through your choices and connect you with services.
  • If a clinical trial that provides access to a new approach may benefit you, especially important for patients with high risk or recurrent cancer.
