Anybody know about this in Kunming, or China, or Chiangmai or Hong Kong? Not interested in general impressions of

medical or eye care in China - after all, there are a lot of medical institutions in China, and naturally I wouldn't be interested in the ones that are not very good.
My understanding is that cataract surgery is not necessarily very complicated. Don't care if the surgeon speaks English or not.

20k, holy sh*t!

Unless your daughter has some particularly complicated condition, that seems a bit extreme. However, I've always had really good teeth, so the fact that my visits to dentists here, one of whom at least had done a year of study in Sweden, were satisfactory is probably nothing to judge by. I'm sure the one who'd studied in Sweden must have spoken English, but I can't remember about the others. Sounds like the guy in Guangzhou is a superwhiz.
Incidentally, the clinic with the Swedish-trained dentist was on Cui Yuan Road not far from the zoo, but on the other side and had some association with the dental college, but I think it's no longer there. All necessary equipment, etc.
I also know a guy who had some rather extensive dental work done in Chiangmai, which is closer that Guangzhou, and was fully satisfied. Said it wasn't too expensive, and in Chiangmai you can be pretty sure of medical/dental staff that speak English.

My impression is that virtually anything at the Nationalities Village will be pretty phony, although I'd like to be proved wrong.

The little kiosks I used to use have, in fact, stopped selling them, or at least have stopped selling the ones I used to use, about 6 months ago.
