A friend of mine has given me the name of a OB/GYN that has received his education and degrees from two foreign medical schools : Instituto Superior de Ciencias Medicas de la Habana ( Cuba), and Universidad de Ciencias Medicas Centro Colon San Jose ( Costa Rica). I have searched his profile in Vitals.com and HealthGrades.com and both sites state that these schools have not been rated. I worry because I remember reading that some doctors go to study in medical schools in Central America because they are lenient and students can graduate faster.

I need to have a hysteroscopic polypectomy done soon. I want to make a good decision not one based on fear.
