International Patients

The Medical Tourism program at Shaare Zedek puts the patient first - before, during and after the hospital stay - regardless of where he or she might come from. Patient comfort during the medical treatment is our primary concern. Family and friends receive the same personal attention, as we strive to make the medical treatment experience as pleasant as possible. Appreciating that the needs of international patients differ from the needs of those who live closer by, we make every effort to ensure that your needs and those of your family and companions receive every consideration and attention.
The Medical Tourism Office is fully prepared to help you arrange all aspects of your visit for medical treatment in Israel, from coordinating your physical check-ups and second opinions to sophisticated surgeries and state-of-the-art therapies. From the initial inquiry through all stages of treatment, the Shaare Zedek Medical Tourism staff is on hand to provide individualized service.
We understand that all too often medical treatment can involve frustrating bureaucratic headaches. At Shaare Zedek, we’ve developed an administrative approach that allows international patients to direct their primary focus and efforts towards their medical health and leave the rest to us. 
Monetary arrangements are made directly with the administration (without intervention or negotiation with the medical professional). An all-inclusive cost quote is arranged before the procedure, to minimize “surprises” along the way. We know that medical procedures can be emotionally draining so we do our best to spare you any other frustrations or potential headaches.
When your treatments and initial recovery are over, Shaare Zedek offers you the added benefit of being able to enjoy one of the world’s most desired travel destinations. Jerusalem - a city holy to billions, located in a region unparalleled in history, culture and natural beauty - is the ideal place to enjoy some R&R. Yet another great reason to choose Shaare Zedek for your medical care!
