Wish we could force doctors like this into retirement. The scarey part is that for many patients, this is the only type of doctor they see, and then go on to suffer in silence because their 'expert' said they had to.
Yes, I've dealt with a couple of those Med-tourism guys as well and gotten a bad taste in my mouth. I'm not sure if they are working directly for the surgeons, but if so, they should do a better job of vetting their recruits. They are hurting their reputation.
And as many know, the MRIs, etc. are not an accurate indication of how much pain one is suffering. Some with very bad looking images have little to no pain, and vice versa.
