  • Why did Russia need the help from American surgeon Michael DeBakey to assist in Yeltzen's heart surgery when Russia has top surgeons and experts of their own?

  • i'm from russia and believe me when i say that russia's health care system is a pile of cruel and crooked shit and a fucking disgrace to humanity. moreover, i absolutely agree with dcentral. lots of billionairs also come for example to germany in order to undergo surgery whilst normal people are treated like crap and probably end up dying. videos similar to this one are nothing but propaganda.

  • @TheBlackbeltGorilla I respect the things you have told me and I will make sure to remember them, but I don't think it's right to tell someone to stop dreaming about something they are passionate about. That kinda hurt and I don't appreciate that.

  • @carlyandoreo9625 hate to brake it to you but IF(and thats a big if) you do in fact become a surgeon, the last thing you'll be thinking about is the patients ability to pay the bills.You'll be around 30(maybe older depending in what country you live in when you are done with your residency) and around $150,000 in debt (again, maybe more). You'll never get a say in how much the patients get charged, surgeons work for the hospital.My advice..stop dreaming about saving lives and finish high school.

  • He's the best! I am proud to be russian!

  • @JUDALATION Well there is no such thing as "best in the world." The best heart surgeon is the one that saves your life. If you had a heart attack and this guy was there to do the bypass you would obviously think he was the best because he saved your life. Other people who had heart surgery think the same about their doctor for the same reasons.

  • Russian Propaganda at its worst! Even the Russian Sureon is admitting he is not the best!

  • @Stonefalconetti I get your point. What country are you in?
