Thanks Peter. Good article. I always wondered why I was pretty happy
with my level of health care here in Alberta, especially with all those
people telling me how crappy it was.

And for all you over 40 folks that have a prostate gland -- get it
checked every year, including a PSA.

and, if possible, especially abnormals(high numbers), have the PSA
re-run. Most PSA methods are pretty squirrelly and IMO more prone to error
than other common chemistries. Not saying that a LOT of bad results come
through, but every method I have ever seen(7 to present) seems to be prone
to stray error.
still, Daves advice is good, indeed

I do, both provincial and employer supplemental (semi-private and
other fancy stuff) but neither will spend more to get the same
treatment here at much less cost, and without waiting I might add.

Incidentally, cancer survival rates are better here than where you're
standing so I'll take my chances here.

Hodgkin's Lymphoma diagnosed in 1975, remission 1976, 10, 20, and 30 year
aniversary, And that's back when I had Florida Medicaid for an insurance
plan.
Left Cancerous Kidney removed 2001, no signs of active disease October 2005.

I'll take my chances here thank you very much.
