I agree......LOL....... Since although all the doctors and surgeons go to the same schools and read the same books, but only the VERY VERY VERY BEST go to NY and NJ. The rest of the country is in a world of hurt if they choose surgery in any other place than in NY or NJ? Let me tell you I had Carotid artery surgery, which is a surgery that has a high rate of stroke during surgery, in Boca Raton Florida. My surgeon was rated one of the top in the country for successful Carotid artery surgery and he never practiced in NY or NJ if you can believe that. I since had triple bybass surgery for the heart and my surgeon in S. Florida was excellent. He also never practiced in NY or NJ if you can believe that.
