At The Cancer Center at Sheba Medical Center, we have a unique 360-degree approach to cancer treatment. As the top cancer treatment center in the nation, we take a holistic and integrative path to patient care. We achieve this firstly by providing for every need of patients and their families – medically, psychologically, and socially. Caring and compassion are our watchwords and we reflect these values in each and every patient interaction.

Next, we pursue our goal of world-class medicine with a personal touch by retaining staff with specific expertise in each type of cancer. Our specialized cancer clinics are a reflection of this commitment:

• The Meirav Breast Center, which is devoted to new surgical techniques and other therapies to eliminate the scourge of breast cancer.
• The Radiation Oncology Department, treating an extremely wide range of cancer types with the best in clinical care.
• The Sheba Pancreatic Cancer Center (SPCC), the largest center of its kind in Israel and staffed by some of the top pancreatic cancer experts in the world.

Each patient is different and every cancer case is unique – that is why we provide tailor made medicine. Although we have highly specialized experts, the various centers at Sheba Medical Center work in concert and collaborate with the International Medical Department to provide world class care to all our patients every day, whether they are from Israel or abroad.

Head and neck cancer includes a group of various malignant tumors that develop in the mouth, throat, larynx, sinuses, and nose, or in the tissues surrounding these organs. At Sheba Medical Center, an experienced team of multidisciplinary experts, including ENT physicians (ear, nose, and throat specialists), head and neck surgeons, oncologists, radiologists, imaging specialists, and pathologists evaluate each patient’s condition to design the most suitable, personalized treatment program.

Lung cancer is presently the most frequently diagnosed cancer in men, the third most common cancer in women, and a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. There are two main types of lung cancer: small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer, classified by how the cells appear under a microscope. Non-small cell lung cancer is more common, comprising about 85-90% of all cases.

If lung cancer is diagnosed, staging tests will be performed to determine how far the cancer has spread through the lungs, lymph nodes, and other organs. Based on the type and stage, our doctors at Sheba Medical Center will design the most effective, personalized treatment program. We offer a range of options for advanced lung cancer treatment in Israel.
