I agree with Vicki - similar story up here in Canada except there is less of a money incentive but definitely a bias against going overseas for the m6 for the orthos and neuros I spoke with. Some of it is ignorance as well and you need to take all this (the money incentive, the ego of the doctor not being able to solve your problem etc.) into account as much as this is against your natural inclination to trust them.
