    Patient was treated for in the clinic Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov Clinic)
    Recommend

    I would like to express my gratitude to the Surasky Medical Center for the qualified help in the treatment of breast cancer and special thanks to Dr. Moshe Inbar. Thanks to the prescribed radiotherapy, I managed to avoid breast removal.
    It is important to note the very caring attitude of the medical staff and the comfortable conditions of the clinic, which undoubtedly helped in the treatment process.
    Israeli medicine gave me the future and helped me understand that cancer is not a sentence.

    Why patients with cancer choose treatment at the Sourasky Medical Center

    Modern and high-quality examination:

    • At the stage of diagnosis, the oncology department conducts special tests for cancer cell mutations. Such methods allow choosing a treatment that is not toxic to healthy cells.
    • High-definition imaging equipment (3T +, 256+ sections) shows tumor contours well, allows planning the less harmful surgery.
    • New contrasts for PET-CT (F18, C11, Ga 68, FDG, Choline, Fluciclovine, PSMA, NaF), which are used in the Ichilov Hospital, allow finding distant foci of metastases in any part of the body up to 1 mm.
    • Genetic screening shows the patient’s inclination for cancer. Such tests allow to completely curing the patient the first time, without the risk of relapse and extra doses of chemotherapy and radiation.

    The variety of treatments:

    If the surgery is required, the doctors choose the necessary method: laparoscopy, a Da Vinci robot, an ultrasonic scalpel, or a cyber-knife. This allows organ-preserving surgery with minimal blood loss. Staying in the clinic takes 1-2 days, and full rehabilitation 2-3 weeks, instead of the usual 6 months.

    Patients who need chemotherapy are offered safer and more effective drugs: targeted and immunotherapy. Devices that do not affect healthy tissues are used for radiation therapy. That is why patients do not lose hair and feel much better.

    Patients with the consequences of severe injuries receive the functional improvement of the musculoskeletal system using individually manufactured titanium prostheses on a 3D printer. In addition to titanium, prosthetics made from artificial or donor bone tissue. For children with bone cancer, temporary implants that grow with the child are used. This allows children to fully grow up despite their illness. The restoration of cartilage and ligaments in the joints is carried out using stem cells and gene therapy drugs. Israel has developed its own unique Api Fix system for straightening the spine — it allows you to straighten your back without bulky metal structures that hamper the movement in the spine. To remove hernias and rehabilitation of joints and spine, Ichilov doctors use modern copyright methods: Spinal Fusion, APOS, DISC FX, and others.

    Why cardiac surgery in the Sourasky Medical Center is so popular among foreign patients

    Cardiac surgeries are performed in a new building — Sammy Ofer Heart Center. There are several hybrid operating rooms that combine diagnostic and surgical equipment. This allows heart surgery without incisions: through small injections under the control of x-rays, CT, and ultrasound. Skilled medical experts perform stenting and shunting, change the entire aortic valve through a catheter (TAVI), and the mitral valve through a small intercostal incision, operate cardiac and aortic aneurysms and treat arrhythmia. All this is carried out on a working heart without opening the chest and cardiopulmonary bypass.

    The center is headed by Dr. Yanai Ben Gal, a cardiothoracic surgeon with over 20 years of practice in Israel and the USA.

    How a foreign patient can get treatment at the Sourasky Medical Center

    Prior to visiting the hospital, MedTour coordinates communication between foreign patients and doctors:

    • We collect the results of the examinations in an individual patient card, compare the list with the requirements of the doctor, and translate everything into Hebrew.
    • We check the examination and treatment plan, request a preliminary calculation for each patient, helping you plan your budget and expenses.
    • We coordinate the doctor’s schedule with convenient dates of the trip. Patients do not have to wait, all the examination and treatment can be completed in one trip — we save your time.

    When the patient is signed up to the clinic by the MedTour representative, we take care of the trip organization:

    • We select airline tickets, minimize transfers, find the most profitable dates, and arrange flights for patients with limited mobility.
    • We book accommodation, check photos and prices, select a safe and convenient area.
    • We arrange a pick up at the airport and a transfer.
    • We provide an individual coordinator who solves unexpected issues and defends the interests of the patient in the clinic.
