I've suffered from botched medical tourism in Costa Rica and tried to go threw the court system which was a joke. there is no protection when something goes wrong for the patient. Please watch my video and help get out the other side of this growing trend.

The medical education in US is expensive..... in India at-lest its free in public univreisties (although most graduates go abroad after getting a subsidized education ).
I think charitable organizations should sponsor medical education of doctors.....in return for a agreement or something gives them a normal salary....atleast for say 5-10 yrs...

I can't stand Ryan Owens. He doesn't display his condescending attitude in this segment, but he is at the core an arrogant, chauvinistic, homophobic creep. I wish ABC News would give him his walking papers.

This Medical Tourism Industry has created many oportunities for people looking for high quality care and affordable prices.
It is also true that it involves many benefits and risks. The best thing is to get as much information as you can before making a final decision.

One of the big reasons why medicine is expensive in the US is due to the American Medical Association (AMA). This is a very powerful lobby made of doctors and prevents new medical colleges from being opened in the US, officially because the quality of the doctors must be preserved. Actually, it is to keep the salary of the doctors high. This AMA is extremely powerful and is partly responsible for the mess of the medical system in the US.
