Quite good, supposedly, but not so sure about sports specialists. I have only heard of "regular" docs and feel very comfortable if I were to get Dengue Fever or any other tropical thing, I'd be in good hands. But something like this I wouldn't bother with going to the doc even in the US. Just me, maybe, but I've had such limited success with PT and ortho docs in the past in the US that self care at home always seems to be a less expensive and simpler alternative. I know there are cases when these docs are really necessary, though. But I'd really need a running specialist/gait analysis or some such and don't think there's anyone like that here. This is more like the US in the 1950s in a lot of ways. Some good, some bad!
