The Medical tourism was arranged by a medical tourism organization and proved to be the best way to handle unanticipated concerns such as understanding the best location for good pricing as well as the best locations for the medical work to be done, air travel, medical records transfer, and Indian visa to mention a few. After a couple of years of searching the internet and even driving 1,000 miles a week round trip for 6 weeks to Mexico to get affordable dental work done. I could have saved thousands of dollars even over going to Mexico had I known about India earlier, and would have had better care at better facilities. Of course, now, as a result, I have friends in India, especially Dr Palak Pandya, my Dentist and Dr Ayyappan, a Plastic Surgeon. As I get older I'm sure knowing Dr Ayyappan will be of benefit... Dr Ayyappan, a Yoga
practitioner and meditator (something we had in common), mentioned that he had worked in Hong Kong as part of his background as a plastic surgeon before returning to India, which allowed me to understand that the International Standards employed in other parts of the world are present here as well.
Here is a link to an interview with Dr Palak Pandya:

All in all it proved to me that I don't have to pay more to get good quality health care - the US Medical System should take note, it would be almost cheaper to fly large a percentage of the Patients in US Hospitals to India, get treatment, and fly them back, than to pay even the admissions costs of getting them treated in the United States. If this sounds like an exaggeration look at it a little closer. Bureaucracy , Profit and Tort reform are in the way of cheaper health care in America.
It seems so easy for America to be heartless to it's poor and uninsured, they breath the same dirty air, eat the same nutrient deficient foods and get the same maladies as the rest the American population and yet their vote does not count, their needs are glossed over and ignored. Whether
the foot, the hand or the head the body of America needs help.
"Hey America, How About US"
