Imagine this: Someone you know is becoming ill or had an accident, but they still have enough time and energy to fly to a nearby country.

Let’s help them decide where is best to go, with our actual reviews.

What’s your story of the best countries you’ve experienced for using their healthcare, and the worst?

It would help if you can go over the — issue/ treatment — costs (before insurance) — language barrier — quality of care

Thank you for helping people make a wiser choice to take care or themselves🙏

Speaking as an American getting healthcare in America… America has been the worse.

Worst USA Experience: blood loss. Refused to get into an ambulance because of $$$ so I took an Uber. Dropped in the parking lot when I lost conscious. Treated by doctors and nurses who all looked miserable (I don’t blame them so much as I blame their employer/ insurance companies). For minimal treatment I was still charged 5k post-insurance.
