America has many, many excellent doctors from India, I wasn't slamming Indian doctors. Nor doctors from any other country besides the US.

But in the US, they have to conform to the same standards as doctors educated in the US, there aren't two tiers of doctors (well, arguably board certified doctors are better than the ones who aren't, but I know many board certified doctors from India, Korea, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, etc., etc., etc.)

My statement about the risks of medical tourism in third world countries comes from reading articles about it in travel publications and so forth. Google the search terms

medical tourism risks

and you'll see.

People from the US have been going to Mexico for medical treatment for decades, and the horror stories are quite numerous.
