Medical is something that isn't really included in datasheets, or at least the ones I've read, but I think it's very important. So, in addition to seeking input on what sort of elective procedures might be conducted in what areas of the world for slightly more reasonable prices, I thought I'd create a thread where people can chime in on the general state of medical care in a given locale. Because sometimes mortality comes at you pretty fast.
Regarding the elective procedures I'm interested in: I have glasses, and I don't think I want glasses anymore. I have a correctable (I think) astigmatism, so I've been pondering laser eye surgery.
Then there's my teeth. They aren't bad, by any stretch; only mild crowding, and my dentist always gives me compliments. But maybe some of that visalign shit.
Of course, I also want to get some travel under my belt. I was entirely too neurotic in the army to enjoy South Korea, so I need to get it in now. I'm 'Murican, filling out my passport application. My first stop will probably be Alberta, for work opportunities, and hopefully soon. I could go to Texas, but why the fuck not Alberta? But yeah, let's talk medical. Where to go for what, where not to go for anything, and so on.
