We would all have liked the best in the world. But we make do with the Best in our country. I have lots of family in Canada 🇨🇦 and they all tell me about how good the health care is ? So not sure what you are looking for

Looking for hospital or surgeon that is world recognized as leader in new technologies in their field. Hope there was a non biased grading as this type of surgery. Want the best. Thanks for reply. Canada’s health is great but has flaws. Dying before they get to you is one. Never public but you hear of it as you get older. Ha. Seeing specialists can be 6 months to two yrs. same with certain surgeries Taxes are outrageous. I have nothing to complain about for the amount of time they have given me but others have not been so lucky. Thanks for help.
