Egyptian Health Care Sucks

The Egyptian actress Soad Nasr went to ‘The Golf’ private hospital in Cairo to undergo a simple liposuction procedure and ended up in a Coma. It seems that the anesthetic doctor overdid his work. It is unfortunate that this kind of negligence happens so often in Egypt that you start to wonder if these doctors are qualified or at least understand the basics of medicine. I heard so many true horror stories about faulty health care in Egypt. Many Egyptian doctors should not be allowed to practice medicine. It all stems from a corrupt medicine education that is based on the principle that “a son of a doctor is a doctor” regardless of his/her aptitudes. Free hospitals are only a placeholder until death. Private hospitals operate without any supervision. They also charge a fortune.

So if you are in Egypt or planning to be there, avoid getting sick and never ever undergo surgery there or you might die young or get in a coma like “Soad Nasr”. Just stay healthy! (if you can)
