We want you to feel confident about your consultation on SecondDoctorOpinion.com. This policy explains when refunds are issued and how to request one.
Full Refund — When Available
- Before specialist assignment: If you cancel your case before it has been assigned to a specialist (typically within the first 2 hours of submission), you are entitled to a 100% refund.
- No specialist available: If we are unable to assign a qualified specialist within 72 hours (e.g., for a rare subspecialty with no doctor on our current panel), you receive a full refund automatically.
- Service failure: If we fail to deliver the opinion within the committed turnaround time (48 hours for Basic, 5 business days for Premium) and the delay is solely on our end.
Partial Refund
- After specialist assignment but before opinion submitted: 50% refund. The remaining 50% covers specialist review time already invested.
- Premium → Basic downgrade: If you upgrade to Premium and later decide you do not need the video consultation (before it is scheduled), you receive a refund of the price difference (₹2,500 - ₹1,500 = ₹1,000).
No Refund
- Once the medical opinion has been delivered to your dashboard, no refund will be issued — the service has been completed.
- Refunds are not provided based on disagreement with the medical opinion provided. A second opinion's value lies in its independence, not in confirming what you hoped to hear.
- If you provided false, fraudulent, or incomplete information that led to an inaccurate opinion.
