I broke my hand when I was a kid. The fragment of a bone was near a tendon and private doctors didn't have absolute consensus on surgery or not surgery for my case.

A friend of my mothers worked in the ministry of public health. She got me an appointment to one of the most important hand doctors in the country. I went there and skipped a line of 100 people wanting to see him. He took a glance at my X-Ray and said there should be surgery with general anesthesia to prevent any damage to the tendon.

There was also no bill.
