I saw a doctor for that very thing in District 10, Jan 2020. MRI, 6 weeks physical therapy. I don't think he was a surgeon, I didn't get any good feels anyway. I wanted to go to Bangkok in March but everything started shutting down. Two years later I still need to get it looked at, I've been mobile and rarely in pain.

Personally I wouldn't get back surgery in Vietnam, sorry, IMHO they just aren't at Western level of training/equipment/experience yet for such critical work. Major hospitals in Bangkok (and KL and Singapore) are Western level.

聽I would recommend Dr Ngoc Anh-Vinmec Central Park who is an amazing surgeon. He studied in France if I remember it right

The director of Cho Ray hospital fairly recently went to Malaysia for routine surgery. I know this because i work in a health related field here. If a well well connected former Dr and hospital director goes to a different country for surgery then that tells you a lot about the standards here.聽
