spinal tumor
In November 2016, my husband was diagnosed with a tumor in the thoracic spine during an examination of the thoracic spine. On the advice of our doctors, we decided to travel to a clinic in Israel for a more accurate examination of the body, to study the nature of the tumor and surgery to remove the tumor, because the tumor was a large size and was located in a difficult place. And also in Russia they made a preliminary diagnosis - oncology, i.e. it was assumed that the tumor could be malignant. Our relatives gave us the coordinates for contacting the MC “Migdal Medical” in Tel Aviv. We called and were contacted by phone the very next day by the clinic staff. I had no idea that it could be so fast. At that time we were still taking tests at our hospital. After receiving the conclusions from our doctors, the staff of the clinic in Israel explained to us everything in detail, step by step how we should be further, sent a price list of necessary for us examinations and services.

My husband was operated by a unique neurosurgeon, who has extensive experience in performing such operations, Dr. Eli Ashkenazi. The tumor was cut out, although it was in a hard-to-reach place, a part of the spine was replaced with an implant. The most important thing is that the tumor turned out to be benign. After the operation the doctor came out to me and told me personally how everything went and that it was not cancer.

The operation was performed at the Assuta Clinic. After the operation, my husband was in a separate room, as he was a patient of MC Migdal Medical. The ward is gorgeous, the food is the best you can't think of, the staff is very responsive. Everything is excellent!!!!!! They allocated a bed for me in the ward so that I could stay in the ward as long as we needed. Eli Ashkenazi is our savior, he accompanied us after the surgery, conducted check-ups in the clinic and after discharge. Before leaving for Russia, they were given recommendations on how to behave after the operation.

In conclusion, I want to say, do not be afraid to go for treatment in Tel Aviv, in MC “Migdal Medical”, if they take to help you, they will do what depends on them. And they will do everything at the highest level. To all employees a huge THANK YOU!!!!!

intervertebral hernia
I suffered from back pain for a long time. Our doctors could not help. It so happened that we were in Israel and a friend organized a meeting with Dr. Eli Ashkenazi. I had to extend my stay in Israel a little bit, because after the operation I needed rehabilitation, although the operation was minimally invasive. The examination and the operation itself took place in the Assuta clinic. In general I am very satisfied with everything.

vertebrae replacement
Thank you dear Dr. Eli Ashkenazi. You replaced 2 vertebrae in 2013 and put a titanium plate between them. You performed the surgery with your gentle technique in about 40 minutes. My friend Igor Kazansky brought me to you. And we are Capricorns, my birthday is January 10 and yours is January 11. You operated on me on January 13. You even postponed my trip to America. I hug you. Galina Lipanina.

Brain tumor
I was diagnosed with a brain tumor, but brain tumor surgeries are very expensive in the US, so I started searching for experienced neurosurgeons online and luckily I got a consultation with one of the renowned surgeons, Dr. Ali. He performed my surgery with excellent result.
