Its a pity that this procedure till recently was not available in the United States. While surgeons at hospitals in India like the Wockhardt Hospitals Group which is a part of Harvard Medical International have been performed it on hundreds of patients with excellent outcomes. <BR/><BR/>The sensational thing about the high quality medical care at the state of the art, internationally accredited hospitals is indeed the cost, which is one sixth or eighth of that in the US, UK or Canda.Defenders of organized medicine are fond of saying that the United States has the best healthcare in the world, but I challenge that. I don't think we have the best healthcare in the world, I think we have the most expensive healthcare in the world. In fact, in terms of results for dollars spent, I think the United States ranks very near the bottom of the list of all industrialized nations. We get less actual health than anyone else for each dollar that we spend. <BR/><BR/>Last year one of my uninsured friends who was otherwise faced with the prospect of mortgaging her property to pay for hip surgery here chose to go to India for hip resurfacing surgery at Wockhardt Hospitals in Bangalore . I could not believe when i saw her walking flawlessly and her life has changed completely. She says she can't honestly say that we can't remember ever been taking care of us by so many nice, kind, and caring people as at Wockhardt Hospital in India.
