Request a second opinion for your cancer diagnosis in Manchester
A second opinion can offer clarity, confidence, and reassurance. At The Christie Private Care in Manchester, our expert consultants are here to help you explore your options.
Supporting you with clarity and confidence
Whether you’ve recently received a cancer diagnosis, are considering a proposed treatment plan, or have already started treatment, seeking a second opinion can give you greater confidence.
At The Christie Private Care, your case will be reviewed by a consultant who specialises in your type of cancer. When you come to us, you’re gaining insight from experts based at one of the most renowned cancer centres in Europe, with access to advanced diagnostics, research, and multidisciplinary support.
Your consultant will carefully review your scans, test results and treatment history. They may recommend further investigations, suggest alternative approaches, or confirm that your current plan is the most appropriate. In every case, the aim is the same: to provide clarity, reassurance, and care that’s tailored to you.
When you choose The Christie Private Care for a second opinion you’re choosing:
- Specialist expertise: You’ll be seen by a consultant with expertise in your type of cancer at one of Europe’s most renowned cancer centres.
- Reassurance from a fresh perspective: A second opinion may reveal new options—or reinforce that your current plan is the right one. Either way, it helps you move forward with greater confidence.
- No change to your process or care: Seeking a second opinion doesn’t interrupt your existing treatment unless you choose to make changes. We’ll give you the information you need to make informed decisions about your treatment and care.
- Access to wider services: If you do choose to continue your care with us, we offer a full range of therapies - from diagnostics and surgery to systemic anti-cancer therapies and supportive care.
How much does a second opinion at The Christie Private Care cost?
You can access a second opinion at The Christie Private Care through private medical insurance, self-funding, or a sponsor. Costs will vary depending on your individual case.

- Self-funding: Costs will depend on your individual case. Our team can provide a clear estimate based on your needs.
- Sponsor-funded care: If your care is being paid for by a third-party such as an embassy, employer or health office, we will need a letter of guarantee and deposit and, in some cases, payment beforehand.
