medical health care tours in israel

Visits to various Israel Hospitals and healthcare institutions took up much of our time over the 6 days of the trip, and provided some real insights. The trauma facilities in Hadassah hospital near Jerusalem were highly impressive, and a visit to the rehabilitation centre at the Tel-Hashomer hospital was particularly interesting. At this in- and out-patient centre, patients recovering from various medical conditions or injuries are helped back to health in a holistic manner which aims to integrate them smoothly back into society. For example, there is a special programme for those recovering from heart attacks, with a graded exercise programme and a gym that is used by both patients and staff.

The timetable was fairly packed with all these visits as well as the conference schedule, but there was some time set aside to experience non-medical aspects of Israel. On one evening we were given a night-tour of Jerusalem by some Israeli medical students, culminating with a midnight snack of falafel in the old city.

In all, this trip was busy, hectic, exciting and enlightening. Seeing so many aspects of the healthcare system of any country is surely a fantastic thing for all medical students to do. The experience of Israel was a welcomed bonus.

There are three distinct reasons that make israel the most favored and preferred destination for Health check – wellness procedures, Israel’s medical expertise, state-of-the-art technology at par with the best in the world, and the incredible cost-effective health care.
