I am right there with you. In Cambodia, I was friends with a group of old guys from the US and all four of them were able to treat serious medical conditions by avoiding US “healthcare”. One of them had won a years-long battle against cancer right before i met them which he never could have afforded in the US.
Would have died years ago in the US, instead he was sitting around a table eating sushi and drinking beer with friends.
My health problems have largely been dental, and Thailand dentists unequivocally superseded the quality of care in the US for less than 1/3 of the cost at the relatively expensive bangkok clinic, BIDC.

There’s some good healthcare info in this post, too.
Thanks, i live abroad full time so it’s all been a vacation for the past 15 years!
Cambodia was great: angkor wat is fascinating, the towns are all chill and i got to hang out with those old guys at a great sushi bar/microbrewery while they told all their stories.
I’ve backpacked and lived all over Thailand more than a few times, i recommend it fairly constantly. Great food, people, nature, waterfalls, you’ll appreciate giving it a go.

Hope you got a nice vacation out of it too. My great uncle died in Thailand during the Vietnam War so I’ve always wanted to go there for that reason.
