brain tumor
I was not aware that my dizziness symptoms are because of a brain tumor. I have been to many neurologists but nobody was able to identify the situation. Dr. Dvora in just a visit informed me about the severity of the situation and did my surgery herself. The treatment has made me feel a lot better.

As we bid you farewell, we would like to say that we were satisfied with our visit to you. The result of the diagnosis we were completely satisfied. Now we are sure that our child is healthy! It remains to do the most important thing for today, to choose the right and loving rehabilitation complex for the child. Thank you very much!

Glioma
When the doctors announced the diagnosis, I was scared. Glioma. They suggested surgery, but no one gave me a guarantee. My daughter took me to Israel for treatment. I was examined at the Ichilov Clinic. The tumor was inoperable because of its size. That is why they first prescribed chemotherapy, and then only performed surgery. After the surgery, I had to undergo chemotherapy and radiation again. The treatment was not easy, but now I realize that the Israeli doctors just brought me back to life. I am very grateful to them, especially to the head of the department, Deborah Blumenthal.

surgery
I am very grateful to the Israeli doctors for saving my life and giving me back my activity and confidence in the future. I was afraid to go under the knife of our doctors. I gave preference to treatment abroad. And as the best option I chose Israel. Everything was at the highest level in the Ichilov Clinic - diagnosis, surgery and medical care. I would say that after the surgery in 2 hours I was already up and walking around the department. So I advise everyone to go only to the best.
