The facts are in Canada we can treat anything as well as you can in the U.S. but it all falls down because our diagnostic skills don't equal yours. This is why you will find the waiting rooms of the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota jam packed with Canadians.

There is no doubt the pay for services system works better generally speaking. There are good doctors here and you can get good treatment here if you know the right people.

If you are injured or killed in Canada by a Canadian doctor you won't have a friend in the Canadian Court system because your medical expenses are covered. Your estate might claim burial costs but this would be a fight to because they would have to admit fault.
