An estimated 40% of all medical travelers are looking for the world's most advanced technologies, worrying little about the proximity of the destination or cost, according to consulting firm McKinsey & Co. Most of those patients in search of the best care, including 38% from Latin America, 35% from the Middle East, 16% from Europe and 7% from Canada, are heading to the United States. Commonly seeking cutting-edge cardiovascular, neurological or oncology treatments, the bulk of medical travelers head to U.S. medical facilities because physicians from their native countries have trained or currently work there or they follow the lead of friends or family. And then, of course, there's the United States' reputation when it comes to health care.
Whether or not it's empirically true, the U.S. brand of medicine is still perceived as being the most advanced health system for treating very complicated diseases and when life is at stake," says Paul Mango, co-author of the McKinsey report.]


ну и так далее.
Мои две копейки: проделал в Киеве две процедуры - удалил пятнышки на лице (старею, что уж тут поделать) Лазером. Кожа реально посветлела. Заплатил 35 мертвых президентов. И проделал септопластику с вазотомией. Короче, есть внутри носа такой хрящик. У меня он был немного искревлен. Из за этого гнусавил немного И иногда было трудно дышать через нос. Плтора дня в госпитале. 770 мертвых президентов. Всем даволен.
