It's only the best medical system in the world if you are rich enough to afford the treatment. That and the fact that he lives in the USA would be the best reason I think he would choose to have a medical procedure done. I am sure had it been life threatening would have had it done abroad.

That is a load of BS. The poorest people in this country routinely receive health care that you would need to be rich to afford in other countries.
Haha. What an excuse for the pompous ass known as Kerry.
This is what they sent to pick up "nothing is too good for" Kerry because he wants to have is own personal doctor. Well I guess they needed a plane this large to pick up his huge ego along with the $10,000 bike that made him think he was 20 years old. BTW, It's not part of Obamacare.
As you know deep down the problem with our medical system isn't the quality of care, it's the cost, the most expensive in the world, just as you know deep down John Kerry can afford it so it's fine.
So, other than the urge to start yet another baseless 'leftie this, leftie that' thread, do you have a point?
Oh, for crying out loud. He lives in the U.S. His family support---which he'll need a lot of when he starts therapy---is here in the States. The security for him in a hospital used to having high profile people from the government will better serve him here than a random hospital aboard could ever do. Not to mention most people like to use surgeons they know and trust. Right wingers who try to make mountains out of moles hills like this just make themselves you look foolish.
If I were a leftie, I wouldn't trust ANY of the 1% overpaid, greedy surgeons in America.
I was under the impression that America had the worst (or close to the worst) medical system in the world....even behind Cuba and Ethiopia
He broke his leg in France (the leftie Utopia for all that's awesome), went to Switzerland for initial treatment (another leftie Utopia), yet he chose to come to America of all places for surgery!
Can someone please explain this?
Perhaps your impression is wrong.
I'm curious though why you think you need an explaination in regards to someone else.

Only people who've never had surgery would say that. Hint: Everything isn't political.
