Dr. Rizk discusses the dangers of Medical Tourism

Dr. Sam Rizk warns Americans of the dangers of going abroad to have plastic surgery.

Thousands of Americans flocking to exotic locations like Columbia or Thailand to have medical procedures performed at a significantly lower cost than they would in their own country. It almost sounds too good to be true. A lush, paradise environment with surgical procedures that cost 1/10th of what you would pay in your own country? But Dr. Rizk says, people dont realize that this type of tourism can end up costing more not only in money, but also in their health when coming back with complications and not the results they expected.
