Our medical system works if you have the money, otherwise it it sucks, and is by no meeans the best in the world. There are all kinds of mortality and other stats that support this.

Not to say that any of the systems in Europe are any good... for the most part they are awful as well.

Bottom line.. if you have the $$ the best medical care is in Boston,Mayo, Baltimore, New York, Houston and maybe LA in no particular order...but again, you need the money and contacts in some cases.
