Seanad debates

Tuesday, 13 May 2003

I had a disastrous experience here during prostate treatment as a result of which I damn nearly died. I visited Cyprus recently where one receives such treatment almost immediately. They use the latest techniques and drugs, patients feel little pain and they are out of hospital almost instantly. I had a dental problem while I was there. I have four dentists in Ireland attending to one tooth. Over there, I got an appointment the next day and saw a wonderful young female dentist. She gave me an anaesthetic, partly extracted the tooth and dressed it. She gave me a full run down on oral hygiene practices and it cost approximately €35. There is too much specialisation in Ireland.
