Patient reviews

Omer

Thyroid tumor removal

In April, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I had a mental breakdown and was completely hopeless. However, the doctors assured me that I would be fine. I made an appointment with Dr. Avi Hefets, an experienced thyroid specialist. I am grateful to God that after the operation I began to recover, the medicines also turned out to be very effective. Thank you Dr. Avi Hefets for your help!

Inna

removal of part of the thyroid gland

In the shortest possible time, an examination and consultation with Avi Hefetz, head of the ARAM Head and Neck Surgery Center at the Assuta Clinic, was organized for me. After the examination, a consultation with an endocrinologist. Doctors confirmed that it is better to remove only part of the thyroid gland (2/3 of the gland was preserved for me!), because I still have a young body and I still need a thyroid gland. The day of the operation was set. And it was successful! Now I feel great. Everything, of course, was very expensive. But with health, nothing else! Do not be ill.

removal of the thyroid gland

I had surgery to remove my thyroid gland. Many thanks to Avi Hefetz, who consulted me about cancer, explained all the nuances of my condition, and encouraged me. Also thanks to the staff of the Assuta clinic, you have been very supportive of me during such a difficult time.

Alyona

removal of the thyroid gland

The clinic staff are very polite, attentive, smiling. The preparation for the surgery itself took place in a calm environment, where each person does his own work. The atmosphere is soothing. Before the surgery, Dr. Avi Hefetz told how everything would go, explained what would happen after the surgery. Everything went well. Now of course I will be on hormones for life, as the thyroid gland was completely removed. But the main thing is that cancer is defeated.
