It's about cardio- and neurosurgery. In Israel go, even the inhabitants of the countries with well-developed medicine (Australia, Canada, USA). Come to make unique operations on the brain and heart.
Identified timely cardiac disease in 95% of cases amenable to a complete cure. The key point is competent diagnosis.

ECO
Another area which the Israeli medicine can be proud of, - gynecology. The mandatory state insurance includes an unlimited number of IVF attempts, and annually for every million inhabitants account for more than 3400 procedures. It is not surprising that Israel has the world's best equipment and the most qualified doctors of IVF.
A full cycle of IVF costs about 9000 dollars.
Treatment and rehabilitation of children
Finally, Israel has one of the lowest in the world nereabilitirovannyh percentage of children with cerebral palsy. In this disease, a comprehensive approach is important: exercise therapy, medication, prosthetics, social and psychological adaptation. But here it all starts with the diagnosis. According to the therapist's clinic Tel Aviv Medical Center Yulia Bar, about 30% of the children of Israel put diagnosis other than delivered in Russian, and assigned treatment protocol often too much is different.
Russian language
Medical terms difficult to understand even in their native language. And if between doctor and patient is also a language barrier, correctly diagnose the disease and prescribe treatment extremely difficult, and in some cases it is impossible to do. For example, neuropsychiatry and rehabilitation, especially children, require direct contact of the doctor and the patient.
As a rule, Russian-speaking patients on treatment abroad until the end do not understand that for manipulation and what is carried out with them. Israel has no such problem. Most Israeli hospitals you will be able to speak freely with medical staff in Russian.
In Israel, there are neuropsychiatric centers, which created a special department to the medical and administrative staff who speak Russian, English and Chinese. Among them - the clinic Matzpen. Along with the Israeli-patient treatment, there accept patients from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan.
Our clinic is well known to many stars of show business and the well-known politicians from the former USSR. Some of them are our regular patients. They are attracted to quality health care, high level of service and strict confidentiality.

Obtain a Schengen or US visa difficult. Especially if there is no consulate hometown desired country. In addition, the visa has an expiration date, and he can get to a point when you need to re-visit the clinic.
But the Russians can travel to Israel 90 days without a visa.
Relatively speaking, it is possible to take a decision in the morning and in the evening have to talk to your doctor. Also, many Israeli hospital patients are sent a special invitation to the patient quickly and without hassle passed customs control.
