      My entire mindset of Healthcare had to change when I moved here. Previously in America, when I got a fever or a rash or a major allergy, I would see if its worth it to go to a clinic and sit for a few hours with other sick people and pay 75USD for them to tell me to go to a drug store and eat some Tylenol.

      Now, I go into the clinic downstairs even if I have a cold. 10USD and they gave me a week’s worth of meds. It’s normal to go back to the doctor 2 days after if your condition worsens or if you just had a question.

      I have yearly check ups and my doctor told me I needed to do a colonoscopy. If I opted for staying awake during it, its 10USD. But I elected to be put to sleep. It was 310usd.

      Come visit us on your next vacation! The people here are very polite and pretty happy.
