Real Patient Story: A Life Reimagined After a Second Opinion

In 2024, Ms. Lou, a 62-year-old patient from China, was struggling with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Despite multiple treatments, her disease continued to progress. Her family reached out to Medebound HEALTH, and within one week, a virtual consultation was arranged with the Clinical Director of Thoracic Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

The expert:

  • Confirmed her pathology findings

  • Recommended a targeted therapy based on EGFR mutation

  • Offered guidance on potential U.S.-based clinical trials

  • Provided dietary and supportive care advice


With renewed confidence and a clear direction, Ms. Lou’s family worked with local doctors to integrate this new plan. Her symptoms stabilized, and her quality of life improved significantly.


What You Need to Prepare

Before scheduling a second opinion, make sure you can provide:

  • Medical reports and lab results (translated if needed)

  • Imaging studies (CT/MRI/PET scans in DICOM format)

  • Pathology reports and biopsy slides (if applicable)

  • A written summary of previous treatments

  • Specific questions you want answered

Medebound’s team can assist in collecting, organizing, and translating your documents to ensure a smooth process.

  • Offers a fresh perspective

  • Uncovers new treatment options
