The Second Opinion is a miscellaneous item for the Medic. It gives the Medic a discolored, pale skin graft on the left side of his face, held in place by a line of visible surgical staples that extends from the throat up along the middle of his face and around the skull to the back of his head where it disappears under the clothes. The graft also alters the Medic's signature forelock, making it slightly longer and droopy, and turns the left eyeball white.

Equipping this item alters the Medic's voice responses.

This item can only be worn around Halloween or during a Full Moon; at other times of the year, it does not appear in gameplay, unless the server has Halloween mode enabled. However, it can be equipped at any time and can still be viewed on the loadout screen even when it is not visible during games.

The Second Opinion was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Trivia

  • A second opinion is when a patient requests to see a second physician, usually prior to a surgery, to get another point-of-view.
  • One of the Medic responses is a reference to the "Shining" by Stephen King (The "evil side" of Medic chanting "Redrum" )
