Hi, recently my brother in law was dianosed with stomach cancer and we are all trying to find the best place for him to recieve his treatment. We are not too sure if Japan is a good choice for treatment but we understand that the rate of survival is higher there. Please advise if you do know where or who is the best doctor for stomach cancer treatment.

My wife was recently diagnosed with stomach cancer and we had the surgurey for her stomach and spleen removal in Bogota, Colombia. Japan is the number one country in the world with stomach cancer cases, Colombia being on or near number 2. After conversations with M.D. Medical clinic in Houston we wanted to go with a more agressive approach to eliminating the cancer in my wife vs the conservative approach told to us here in the US. Her sugurey was April 21 this year and she is still recoving with a long way to go but the medical facilities were in my opinion equal to US standards.
