Neurosurgeons in Israel

I visited Tel Aviv Sourasky Hospital for my kid's hydrocephalus surgery. Dr. Jonathan Roth handled the case. He did the surgery so precisely and carefully without any complications. My baby is in better condition now, and I am grateful for Dr. Roth's services

Our child was diagnosed with epilepsy. But we did not believe it, as there were never epileptics in our family. It is clear that there is something neurological, but we did not believe in such a diagnosis. We turned to Ikhilov to get a consultation with a specific person - a professor who is considered one of the best epileptologists. We did not go in vain - the professor did not confirm epilepsy, he said that the problem was completely different. He prescribed treatment, which does not include any poisonous drugs, which we were prescribed at home. We are very grateful - words cannot express it! Special thanks to our coordinator from Ihilov. They organized everything very clearly, met us, translated everything. We managed for 4 days. The trip was definitely worth it. 09/10/2023

Positive experience of staying at Sourasky Hospital, in the neurology department. A team of friendly doctors and dedicated caring professional brothers who answer all questions and explain everything in a friendly and clear manner. Thank you, you are doing a holy work. 06/05/2023

Sourasky Neurological Department is top notch in everything: orderlies, nurses, doctors and the head doctor. Everything works great, very positive attitude, I didn't get any negative feedback during my stay here. Everything is great, thank you. 02/05/2023

I came to the Suraski Clinic in Israel for epilepsy treatment. I had been diagnosed several years ago, and I had tried many different methods, but there was no improvement. At my first consultation, Dr. Ido listened carefully to my history, explained the possible treatment approaches and suggested a number of tests. Dr. Strauss developed a personalized treatment plan for me that included epilepsy surgery. The procedure was done very quickly and I noticed a significant improvement after the surgery. My seizures were significantly reduced. I am eternally grateful to Dr. Ido Strauss for his hard work and care.

I came to Dr. Ido Strauss for treatment of a brain tumor. He treated me with great care and attention.

He saved my life.

Quality, professional treatment and warm attitude.

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.

We would like to express our gratitude to the First Medical Center of Tel Aviv in providing and providing qualified specialists, in examining and diagnosing our child Habovskaya Daria. 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!

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.

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.

Dr. Felix Bukstein is very patient, provides an individual and professional approach. Always available and helpful even with technical issues. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

I want to leave our review for those people who need medical care in Israel.... First Medical Center of Tel Aviv - a wonderful center, very friendly great staff, senior and middle staff, as a selection of all, attentive attitude as from close people!

Before Israel was in many clinics. From all our family bow to you, and most importantly, of course, the head of the department of neuro-radiology Dr. Maimoni, ENT doctor Avi Hefetz. WONDER-DOCTOR! Unique doctors surgeons, amazingly simple people, optimists, absolutely confident in the successful outcome of everything they undertake and inspire unconditional trust, recovery to their patients!

30/12/2019

A top notch hospital and with excellent standards - hopefully you won't need.... But we received excellent treatment, many thanks to the angels who work at Sourasky.
My daughter had brain surgery with Prof. Dr. Constantini and Dr. Lior Gonen. Doctors from God. After the surgery we went to the intensive care unit for children, there are no words to describe - just “angels in white”. There are no words to describe the care, attention and dedication. Thank you.

As fate would have it, I was confronted with oncology. It seemed that my life was cut short.... I turned for help to the First Medical Center of Tel Aviv, where I was examined and underwent surgery. I would like to express my endless gratitude to Prof. Shlomo Constantini and Dr. Ron Greenberg for their utmost professionalism, skill and golden hands.

When I was diagnosed with glioma, it was a real shock to me and my family. We turned to Prof. Shlomi Constantini at Ikhilov Hospital for treatment. His positive attitude and confident approach immediately gave us hope. Thanks to his clearly organized treatment plan, I was able to get through a difficult process not only physically but also emotionally. I recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and caring doctor.

Dr. Shlomi Constantini performed a successful surgery on our daughter! When she turned three years old, she began having serious health problems that turned out to be caused by a brain tumor. The surgery was difficult due to the difficult location of the tumor, but Dr. Constantini pulled it off and our daughter is now healthy. We are eternally grateful to him for this!

Dr. Constantini removed a glioma from me. His professionalism and confidence helped me overcome my fears. I highly recommend him!

When I found out about my tumor, it was a moment of total despair. We chose to treat with Dr. Shlomi Constantini at Suraski Hospital and it turned out to be the right decision. His confidence and care helped not only to create a clear treatment plan, but also gave me the strength to fight. Constantini is not only an excellent neurosurgeon, but also a doctor who emotionally supports his patients every step of the way. I recommend him to anyone who needs professional help!

Dear Dr Davidovitch. I am now six weeks after endoscopic surgery. From walking into the Herzlia Medical Centre bent and using a cane you have given me back my life! The treatment and level of care I received in the HMC was awe inspiring. To walk out of the hospital the same day of surgery unaided and without pain was truly a miracle! I am nearly 80 years old and imagined I would not regain my ability to walk without falling due to numbness and tingling in one foot. All this and so much more has been resolved by your amazing endoscopic surgery. From the moment I stepped into your office for my first consultation and came into contact with the lovely staff & Simona who reassured me in such a friendly manner I knew I was in the right place. Thank you and the whole medical team and wishing everyone only good health.

I came for a consultation with Dr. Shlomo Davidovych, a senior neurosurgeon at Bilinson who has specialized for 3 years in Pittsburgh, USA, and he explained to me about the innovative endoscopic method he operates on. This means: in the surgical area, a small incision will be made, through which an endoscope will be inserted, which will allow the surgeon to clearly see the operated area - and perform precise operations, without wide opening of the area. In addition, part of the disc will be removed to reduce pressure on the nerve. I had this operation - and when I woke up, I had no stitches, just a small patch on my neck, which was removed after a few days. I had no pain. I got dressed and went to drink coffee in a cafe!

I arrived at 07:00 for my back surgery at Dr. Shlomo Davidowitz and left for home at 13:00. It is incredibly. Excellent service in every way. Thank you very much.

I can’t find the right words to describe the staff of the neurosurgical department and intensive care unit of the Herzliya Medical Center. Righteous people with a warm heart and soul.

Excellent hospital, especially excellent neurosurgery and intensive care staff. We were there for a month and a half after the accident. Wonderful doctors and staff, they saved my son.

I am very grateful to Prof. Shimon Rochkind for my son's surgery. Professor is a highly qualified specialist, a master of his craft and just a wonderful person!

Good afternoon!!! My daughter Varya Kiseleva was born with a diagnosis of Spina Bifida. At the age of 2 months she had an operation in Moscow to excise a spinal hernia. The first months were difficult for her. The child developed normally, but after a couple of years, pain appeared in the area and the spine became curved. I started searching for a doctor who could help us. The long search was not in vain. Thank God, I found Prof. Shimon, who turned out to be not only a professional in this pathology, but also a wonderful person!!!! He gave us a chance for a normal life. After the operation (fixation of the spinal cord), we had no more pain, my daughter began to grow actively, and sensitivity appeared in her legs. She started to urinate. From the bottom of our hearts we thank Prof. Shimon Rochkind for his golden hands and kind heart!!! Thank you for being there!

Hello! My child was born with a severe anomaly of the spine dysraphism of the lumbosacral region with liquorrhea. The boy was urgently operated in Russia, but unfortunately, the operation was not without complications, pelvic organ functions were disturbed, paralysis of both legs, lack of sensitivity on the buttocks. By the age of 8 years there were worsening: pulling pains in the back and legs, curvature of the spine, deformity of the foot. MRI scans showed secondary fixation of the spinal cord. We turned for help to a wonderful doctor and person Shimon Rochkind. The operation in Israel was successful, the team led by the doctor did a jewelry and very difficult work to release all the roots of the spinal cord. After the operation the child began to feel much better, the pains were gone, my son felt his legs for the first time in the places where they were paralyzed. Now the child is happy that he has become a person with a straight back, his physical abilities have improved, he was able to verticalize and stand independently without support. Doctor, thank you very much for helping us and giving my child a chance to recover and lead an active life.

Hello! My daughter was born prematurely at term. At delivery we found out that she had a lumbar spina bifida aregta et meningoradiculoceles. On 28.11.06, the first operation in Russia "removal of a meningoradiculocele of large size 4 x 5 x 5 cm and plasty of the spinal canal defect" was performed. After the operation, monoparesis developed in the right leg: In the postoperative period on the 3rd day, divergence of the wound was noted. 'Emergency neurosonography was performed - ventriculomegaly was detected.1.12.06 second operation in Russia: "Ventriculoperitoneal shunt on the right side". 09.12.2006 was discharged. When our daughter was 9 years old, we had a repeat MRI in September 2016. Diastonotomyelia and spinal cord fixation were detected. The MRI results were sent to Israel, where Prof. Rochkind agreed to perform the surgery. Time goes on, day by day, month by month and it's been exactly one year since we had the operation, the money was raised with the help of the WorldVita Foundation. During this time a lot has changed, in addition to the fact that we have almost disappeared scoliosis, there is sensitivity in the leg, my daughter can stand on the whole foot, and before only on the heel, just increased muscle tone and the leg does not dangle like an attachment. It's like my daughter has come to life. Thank you to Prof. Shimon Rochkind, and to all the people who helped us! Health to you and your family!!!

At 3 months my son was diagnosed with Spina Bifida and in Russia we were offered to wait with the operation, as the chance for a good outcome in our case was said to be very small and that my son would be incontinent and possibly his legs would fail. I was not satisfied with this option, and I was looking for other doctors for a long time with conclusions and mrt for consultation. By chance I found a mom who was collecting money for surgery for a child with a very similar diagnosis in the foundation and found out from her about the doctor. I found more moms who had operated on their children with Prof. Rokhind and all of them as one said that he is a wonderful doctor with golden hands. We sent him the documents for consultation and in January 2015 my son was operated on in Israel. The professor is really a doctor who is not afraid to entrust the health of the child! He is a professional and works with a great team of doctors! Now my son is four years old, he runs and jumps, he has everything normal with the toilet - he is a normal child and only the scar on his back is the only thing that reminds us of the operation. We are very grateful to the professor and his whole team! Thank you very much for your hard work!

Hello, my son was diagnosed with lipomyelomeningocele, spinal cord fixation, lipoma of the spinal cord and terminal filament at the age of two. There were no visible abnormalities, my boy developed well, he started walking at the age of 10 months, there were no pelvic organ abnormalities, there was only a small fat in the lumbar region, but the doctors were not particularly worried about it. When we went for examination about this lipoma, after MRI we were given this terrible diagnosis. My legs gave out after I started researching what this diagnosis was. The neurosurgeon said that as long as there are no visible changes, it is not worth to operate, but it is better to operate after the beginning of changes to equalize the consequences after the operation. And the consequences are pelvic organ disorders, catheterization, diapers for life and legs can fall off! I was horrified by all this and started looking for information. I found Prof. Shimon Rochkind, he undertook to perform the operation and we trusted him! The surgery was performed 3 months ago, it was a complicated operation, the professor removed the lipoma and removed the fixations. The operation was performed with jewelry, not a single nerve root was damaged. Now my boy runs, plays and jumps. He is absolutely healthy! We are very grateful to the professor and his whole team! God bless you all with health and happiness!

We are from Yekaterinburg (Russia). Our son Andriusha was operated on by Prof. Shimon Rockhind at the age of 10 months. We have Spina Bifida occulta. In Russia we were not given a positive prognosis after the operation. Then we started looking for someone who could really help us. The diagnosis is scary, the consequences too. We did not give up and found and trusted Sh. Rokhind. Now we are 1 yr. 7 months. We have an absolutely healthy child, for which we are very grateful to the professor and his team.

A month ago Alexander underwent the most difficult surgery to remove a giant tumor on his spine. The situation was critical-dysfunction of pelvic organs, threatened and paralyzed legs. Professor Shimon Rochkind brilliantly coped with all these terrible problems by performing a virtuoso operation to completely remove the tumor. Now everything is on the mend, thanks to the golden hands of the professor all the functions of the body are being restored. In spite of what I have suffered, Prof. Rochkind will remain a bright spot in my life. How much good this wonderful doctor brought to people with his hard work! It should be noted that Professor Rochkind is a pleasant, attentive person with charisma, which allows the patient to feel confident in the success of treatment. I bow to you, dear Professor!

We arrived with a diagnosis of a brain tumor. We discovered this tumor purely by chance, within a week we discovered it, got ready and arrived already on the 6th. We arrived in Israel and we were already scheduled for surgery on May 9. We were met at the airport, we came to the clinic. Then we were scheduled for tests immediately, we came for examination and on the next day we were scheduled for an additional MRI. MRI is just before the surgery. We still had pre-operative tests on the 6th, 7th, 8th. Prof. Zvi Ram operated on us. When we were about to go, we naturally inquired, read reviews about the professor and asked the administration that it should be Prof. Ram. We were four days in intensive care, the next day we were transferred to the postoperative department and literally there we started to get up. I think in Ukraine it is impossible to get up and walk on the second day after such an operation. They sent us a physiotherapist who explained to us what we should do, how we should do it, what kind of rehabilitation we should do to make our organism work better. We are very grateful to Zvi Ram that everything went this way, because in Ukraine it was probably much harder to go through the postoperative period. In Ukraine we consulted, we were told 10 days minimum to stay in the clinic. We will be very grateful, God forbid that no one has to come here. But if people ask, we will naturally recommend only this clinic. The team works perfectly, everyone is engaged in their work, there are no delays in the work, everyone is engaged in their work. We are very grateful that we came here, the service is at a high level.

When my husband's CT scan revealed a brain tumor, local doctors suggested treatment in another region, but we chose Israel. The clinic responded the same day, and we went there immediately, as the surgery was urgent. Prof. Zvi Ram, an outstanding neurosurgeon, performed the surgery, during which my husband was conscious to avoid damage to important areas of the brain. The very next day he was able to walk. I am very grateful to the attentive staff at Assuta and recommend the clinic to anyone who has the opportunity.

My five year old son was diagnosed with medulloblastoma. I have always kept an eye on my children's health and take them for regular check-ups, so I was shocked by the results. Fortunately, on the recommendation of a friend, we went to Ikhilov Medical Center, where we were referred to Dr. Zvi Ram. Thanks to him, the tumor was detected at an early stage and successfully removed. I am eternally grateful to Dr. Ram for his help.

I, Nevskaya Svitlana came to Israel from Ukraine, to the Assuta Clinic, after the Ukrainian doctors discovered tumors in my head and suggested surgery. In Israel, Professor Zvi Ram confirmed the presence of tumors, but said that they were small and did not require intervention. Consultations with a psychiatrist and a neurologist also showed that my headaches were not related to the tumors, and I was prescribed medication. I am grateful for the professionalism of the Israeli doctors and I am glad that I did not have an unnecessary surgery.
