Clemmons, North Carolina: January 11, 2016 – Sometimes, just getting the correct tests and exams done to FIND OUT if you need surgery are out of reach because of outrageous healthcare prices.

I can speak from my own experience. As a direct result of unreasonable healthcare prices I was forced to delay treatment of a kidney stone, which almost caused me permanent kidney damage.

Another man spent a year not knowing if he was going to suddenly die. His doctor had ordered a heart stress test, but the patient could not afford it.

Another patient thought she needed carpel tunnel release surgery, but discovered that after all the special visits and X-rays were put together it was cheaper to just schedule the surgery in Costa Rica. If her x-rays and specialist recommend some other treatment, she is still coming out better!

We had two surgery patients (a husband and wife) who were both in desperate need of some kind of medical attention, but they did not know what. They were spending outrageous sums of money going from specialist to specialist. They decided to heck with it, and to just go to Costa Rica.

Recently I had a prospective dental patient ask me if it was a good idea to just go to Costa Rica without knowing quite what they need. My response: that's a GREAT idea. We would not be talking to a person about their health if there wasn't a reason. I do not need to know the exact reason or any given treatment. In fact, we specifically organize patient trips to include a general doctor visit upon arrival to see if there is any unknown pressing matter.

Going to Costa Rica for dental or medical can be cheaper than exams and tests in the USA. It's that simple, and that hard-to-believe. Depending on the situation, we have seen how a patient finding out what treatment is needed in the USA (though expensive exams, specialist visits, and scans) can be more expensive than just going to Costa Rica with a general idea but no fixed agenda.

To heck with it, I'm going to Costa Rica.
