Extremely sorry you had to go through this.
My only submission will be to consider India, which is fast becoming a hub for medical tourism. You can get any test you want and meet specialists in hours, not even days.
Also China...China is generally better for advanced medical technology and complex hospital-based treatments.
And worse for post op ward experience. No family to bring food? You won't be happy. And, according to my Chinese expat friends, even seeking recommendations from friends can incur the expectation of a payoff or several. Want that specialist? Pay to get referral from your gp.
If this is maligning the system I'd love to know. They said faced with excess costs to go private in Oz for a condition or fly home and get treated in China, they'd stay here. The net cost might well be similar.
