Cuban doctors are some of the best in the world. A lot of Cubans do get out of Cuba to work abroad. They are even all the way over here in Asia.
Not everyone is trapped there.
Their system is far from perfect, but none of them (except the wealthy) would be able to go to school or afford healthcare otherwise. It is much, much better than nothing. Again, compare Cuba to their neighbors. Cubans run circles around them in literacy, healthy care, and education. Unfortunately, that comes at a cost. They can't have it both ways. Only Cubans can decide which way they want it, but both isn't an option.
