Neurological Treatment In Israel

The Department Of Neurology

At Sheba Medical Center, we believe in an integrative approach to medicine. When medical providers across different specialities work together as a team and are focused on complete patient care – that is world class medicine with a personal touch. In our Department of Neurology, neurologists, radiologists, physiotherapists, neurosurgeons, pathologists, and pediatric neurologists all work in concert for the betterment of our patients.

We have several different units within our Neurology Department to provide our patients within specialized, expert diagnoses and care. Here are some important facts about the department at large:

  • There are 18 total inpatient beds in the department.
  • Our Neurology Department cares for 1,400 inpatients each year.
  • The department sees 9,500 outpatients each year.
