What happens when things go wrong overseas, is a money back guarantee good enough?  The hospital was accredited by the Joint Commission International and has thousands of visits each year.  Something to think about when venturing overseas for a procedure, where do you go when things go wrong.  Things go wrong here too unfortunately, but you have a little different scenario with getting things corrected but with a lack of regulation overseas, it is something to consider.  The type and number of procedures to be done is also an important factor.  BD 

"Meisel set out to find a surgeon to fix what had been done. But when she'd try to make an appointment, most doctors wouldn't see her. Others took one look at her surgery sites and left the room making derisive comments about people who go overseas for surgery, she recalls.  Meisel wrote the hospital in Bangkok and the surgeon two months after her operations to tell them of her terrible outcomes, but said she didn't hear back. Contacted by a reporter this year, the hospital said it had not received her letter. The hospital then e-mailed Meisel and offered to reimburse her for her surgeries and hospital stay."
