3 Steps to Fly In and get Innovative Cancer Treatments:
​
1. The Consultation: ​
- Fly in for a personal consultation and exam: Ideal for the person who can afford to travel and/or who prefers to meet with the doctors and staff before making any decisions.
- Virtual Consultation: Ideal for the out-of-town person who can’t make it into the office, or who wants to receive a consultation from the comfort of home. Once our specialists determine if you are a good candidate for our radiation treatment process, you will be contacted by our Patient Coordinator who will discuss treatment and travel options.
2. Scheduling:
Once you have determined that you wish to proceed, the scheduling process begins. Your first appointment should take about 1-2 hours and will be spent in our office covering physical examination, review of imaging studies and pathology, and treatment plan discussion. Treatment can then be performed over the course of days or weeks depending on the diagnosis.
​
3. Treatment and Recovery:
Patients and family can stay and recover at one of many resort or accommodation options in Miami. Treatment sessions are short in duration, typically under 30 minutes, leaving patients and family with ample time to explore and enjoy all that Miami has to offer.

Our Second Opinion Program
The Innovative Cancer Institute second opinion program offers patients the tools to understand his or her diagnosis and provide another opinion. We will review your case and provide recommendations for treatment and/or any necessary tests so you can make a more informed decision.
Getting a second opinion from us is easy, convenient, and all done remotely. You can reach out to us and we can start the process with a phone call and the rest can be done by sharing documents online securely. And we have many language capabilities including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and several others.
​
The typical cost for a second opinion is between $500.00 and $700.00 US dollars. This fee includes medical and Imaging review; written second opinion and guidance throughout the process. Unfortunately most health plans do not cover virtual second opinions or consultations, so patients will be responsible for the cost of the second opinion. However, some insurances do cover this service so it is important that you consult with your insurance company.
