Here are some alternatives to Planet Hospital with excellent track records and outstanding customer service. Look into these companies instead if you're deciding to go overseas for medical tourism. Their concern for patient safety, honest results, and follow-up are much better.

At last, someone has the guts to stand up to Planet Hospital. They don't uncover all the pitfalls that come with medical tourism and the procedures they endorse. With the risk and complications that come with the doctors and hospitals they endorse, you can easily end up spending many times more money with retreatments and complications once you get back home. When the overseas doctors don't perform the surgery right, then you're faced with the real risk of having an emergency flight back home to fix what should have been done right the first time. Remember, these overseas doctors know that you are only here temporarly and once you leave, they have no responsabiltiy towards you what so ever. This leads to a "not my problem" mentality by the surgeons when being treated for overseas. So think twice before you make the plunge. It's your life. Is saving a few bucks worth the risk?
