Need to do angiography

Question

Asked for Female, 38 Years

My father underwent an angiogram about 19 days ago. The hospital has suggested for a surgery. The hospital has informed us that there are 3 blockages, but his condition is alright. Just for reconfirmation, we wish for an angiogram again. What is the duration between 2 angiograms?

Better idea is to take the angiography CD to another doctor and get a second opinion.
