Medical Tourism: Mexico and The Middle East Bad With Money With Gabe Dunn

    • Careers

Gaby dives into the phenomenon of "medical tourism" with Kurt Schaefer of Medical Tourism Mexico who used his own company’s services to find a doctor to save his life. Schaefer and Gaby discuss what traveling for affordable care says about the existing healthcare systems, the prevalence and rise of medical tourism in Mexico specifically, and how other countries are able to charge less. Then, Gaby gets into the real life-or-death experience of Lihi Halpern, a fan who wrote in with an incredibly vulnerable story of how she was cohesively and holistically cared for in Israel/Palestine after being gaslit and drained financially by the US healthcare system. (And she'd vowed to never return to the Middle East... and yet...) For Kurt, the story of medical tourism is one of choice and freedom. For Lihi, it was an American nightmare.
