Neo Vita, Moscow's Clinic For Millionaires


We've been chronicling Russia's growing batch of billionaires for years. Sure, they have the yachts, the luxury cars, the expensive real estate all over the world but every person regardless of their wealth needs one thing in order to be happy: health. For Russia's ultra-rich the place to go is Neo Vita. a clinic that offers a variety of treatments for both mind and body, including psychoanalysis at $10,000 an hour.

The clinic offers the ultimate in privacy, visitors must pass a police post and surveillance cameras and confidentiality is maintained at all levels. There is even a discreet side door and according to the AFP, the truly secretive and wealthy can reserve the clinic just for themselves for $200,000. Russian psychoanalyst Artyom Tolokonin justifies his prices by saying he only he understands the Russian mentality, offering services his clients can't get elsewhere. He is quoted in the article as saying: "If he has a castle in Monaco, but can't find love, then I wouldn't be effective if I weren't charging him the equivalent of a castle." And you thought health care in the U.S. was scary!
