* Please note the prices charged for
surgeries represented in the documentations of the links above are
representative of what an American doctor would normally charge.
Of course, our fees are lower but our doctors are more
experienced because more patients come to us due to the
affordable prices. Thus, the doctors work on more cases
(especially oriental patients and many Caucasians). |
