Care for an older family member
Geriatric Medicine
second opinion at
Apollo Navi Mumbai.
When an older family member has records from several doctors, preparing for another opinion can take time. We organise that history and take the case to the geriatric medicine doctor you choose at Apollo Hospitals, Navi Mumbai.
You choose the doctor. We take your case to them.

Prepare for your second opinion
What would you like
your doctor to review?
Bring the questions that matter to you. We help put them into a clear list for your chosen doctor.
- What should we ask about the overall care plan across several conditions?
- What concerns about day-to-day independence should we explain?
- What questions do we have about the current medicine list?
From preparation to recommendations
How it works.
One organised case file. Your questions ready. Someone there to coordinate the visit.
You choose your doctor
Tell us the doctor you want to consult. The choice is entirely yours; we do not recommend, rank or select doctors for you.
We prepare your case with you
In a preparation session, we collect your detailed history, current concerns, reports, prescriptions and discharge summaries, and note your questions.
We coordinate the appointment
We arrange the appointment with your chosen doctor and confirm the consultation arrangements and separate hospital or doctor charges with you.
We take your case in person
A Redwood Care Steward physically visits the hospital with your organised documents and presents your case and questions to the doctor.
You join by video, if permitted
If the doctor allows, we connect you by video during the consultation so you can participate directly.
We share the recommendations
We share the doctor’s recommendations and documents provided, along with clearly identified Redwood notes from the consultation.
Before the appointment
Your records, organised.
With the patient or authorised family member, we note the reported changes in daily routines, the current support arrangements and the family’s main questions. We do not change or assess medicines.
Share the records you already have. This checklist is for organising documents, not a request to get new tests.
Geriatric Medicine records to gather
- Current medicine list and prescriptions from different doctors
- Recent discharge summaries and available investigation reports
- Existing care notes and a family-provided account of daily support needs
- The name of your chosen doctor and your questions
After the consultation
The advice, brought
back to you.
We share the doctor’s recommendations, any documents provided by the doctor, and Redwood’s notes from the consultation. We identify the next steps and questions noted during the visit.
The medical opinion comes from your chosen doctor. Our role is to prepare, coordinate and document.
A few things to know
Your questions, answered.
Can I choose any doctor I want?
Yes. You decide which doctor you want to consult. Share their name with us and we coordinate taking your case to that doctor. Redwood does not influence your choice or select a doctor for you.
Does someone physically visit the hospital with my documents?
Yes. A Redwood Care Steward takes your organised case file to the hospital in person, raises your prepared questions and notes the recommendations shared by the doctor.
Can I join the consultation by video?
We can connect you by video during the consultation if the doctor allows. We discuss the consultation arrangements with you during preparation.
What does the ₹899 fee cover?
₹899 is Redwood’s assistance fee for preparing your case with you, coordinating the appointment, taking your documents to the consultation and sharing the recommendations. Hospital and doctor charges are additional.
When will you respond to my WhatsApp enquiry?
We respond within 12 hours of receiving your enquiry. This is our response time; the appointment date depends on the chosen doctor’s schedule.
Can I coordinate the preparation for my parent from another city?
Yes. We can prepare the case with the patient and their authorised family contact remotely, and share the consultation notes with the contacts the patient approves.
Does Redwood provide the medical opinion?
The medical opinion comes from the doctor you choose. Redwood provides non-clinical case preparation and coordination, and shares the advice recorded during the consultation.
