I do - Hence my note: 'Only one BHR surgeon in France - definitely 20 yrs behind the times!' Hopeless situation over here. You can get a reasonable THR done in France, and a pretty reasonable shoulder surgery done - replacement or hemi, i.e. resurfacing. Why, can even get good spinal surgery done, but at only ONE hospital that anyone with any sanity would go to!
Have pretty much decided on leaving here. Their diagnostics are abysmal and the health service in general not upto scratch. Will give em clean hospitals and reasonable nursing care - though not on all counts. As for their PT and rehab programmes? well below par.
For women, never have a babe over here. They INSIST on stuffing the poor newborn with fluoride injections (reasons not given!) and with Vit-D - this last for rickets, as though France was rife with rickets! IF parents refuse, then they wash their hands of you and you wouldn't get govt support by way of their quite excellent child support programme. Hold you by the throat and you have to do as 'they say'. Ha. I'd still tell em to go get lost. The French are real heavy handed, their way or the highway!
No wonder the Brits and the French are forever fighting <LOL>
