A lot of patients suppose that Israel is the best treatment option. But is it really true? Bookimed Doctor-Coordinator tells what criteria should patients pay attention while choosing a country for treatment.
How to choose a clinic in Israel?
State and private medical practices develop in Israel. Stereotypes say that private clinics are more quality than state ones. But it does not concern Israel. The state has invested in the medicine for years. That is why state hospitals employ the best specialists and have the state-of-the-art equipment. So, state hospitals have all the necessary techniques for diagnostic and treatment.
As for private hospitals, they not always have the necessary equipment, but still, the leading specialists work there. But the choice between private and state hospital depends on the disease a patient is going to treat. So, it is necessary to get a consultation regarding hospital choice.
Real prices for treatment in Israel
Israel is not considered as a cheap country for medical tourism. The prices are approximately the same as in the European hospital. Still, Bookimed always helps patients and tries to find the best treatment in Israel for a reasonable price, and in some cases - get a discount.
The cost of treatment in Israel depends on what clinic or specialist a patient chooses.
