It seems the Brits are using the internet more frequently to double check their doctor’s medical advice. A new poll shows 75% of those surveyed admit to using the internet to seek second opinions.

Of the 2,000 adults polled across the UK, many say they search the web to seek out other opinions on their medical conditions. Of course this practice is more common among younger adults who use the web to search for anything and everything.

The majority of those over 45 said they would seek medical attention from a health practitioner if they were feeling under the weather. Dr. Martin Godfrey, managing director at 3 Monkeys Health and Wellness, says the results of the survey concern him. He worries self-diagnosis will become a nationwide problem if the healthcare industry doesn’t open itself up to change.

It’s fairly common in professional sports to see injured athletes seeking a second opinion. For instance in just a matter of weeks, soccer star Daniel Cardoso went in for a second opinion on a shin injury. The Free State Stars defender fractured his shin bone in pre-season training.

An elbow injury sent Mets pitcher Matt Harvey to the acclaimed Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion. The right hander discovered he has a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament.

Then FOX Sports reported New York Giants David Wilson obtained a second opinion on a neck injury that he feared would lead to season-ending surgery. Wilson learned he has spinal stenosis and a herniated disc.

Obtaining a proper diagnosis is not as easy it seems. A new study suggests doctors make the wrong diagnosis in 10-15% of office visits. And don’t think these involve rare diseases. The study conducted by the Houston Veterans Affairs Center found common conditions like pneumonia, urinary-tract infections, congestive heart failure and cancer.

A misdiagnosis can drive up medical costs, cause unnecessary procedures and death. Oh and misdiagnoses occur twice as often in doctors’ offices than in hospitals.

According to a report from John Hopkins in the August 2013 issue of BMJ Quality and Safety in Health Care, each year as many as 160,000 hospitalized patients die or suffer a serious, permanent injury because health care providers misdiagnose a condition, arrive late at a diagnosis, or miss the problem completely.

Doctors are often rushed and can make mistakes. Ways to avoid a misdiagnosis include: make doctor’s appointments earlier to get the time and attention you need with your physician, come prepared with a list of health complaints or symptoms, bring someone with you who can ask questions, insist on a diagnosis and then go get a second opinion.

Second opinions save lives and good doctors want you to get a second opinion. It will either confirm their diagnosis or find something they might have missed.
