They come all the way down here (in addition to Sloan-Kettering, etc) because our center is ranked the #1 cancer facility in the USA. Plus, it is part of a very large medical complex that covers the best in practically every medical discipline.
As for the stats--they are in my boss' desk. Who, incidentally, was born and raised in Ontario (went to medical school there) and came to the USA to practice medicine (along w/ his wife and brother, who are also MDACC physicians). The first negative stories I heard about gov't-controlled medicine came from him--first hand, from a couple of different perspectives. I'll post them as soon as I can dig them out from his paper-pile.
