About the clinic

Diagnosis begins with a virtual consultation for about $1,200, while specific scans like PET-CT cost around $2,250. The clinic is a Newsweek Top 10 World's Hospital with a renowned Cancer Center. Treatment costs vary, such as surgery from $2,500 and specialized TIL therapy priced around $125,000.

Diagnosis for Melanoma

Sheba offers a complete diagnostic process. Patients receive a full assessment before treatment. This often starts with a detailed plan from an expert.

Key diagnostic options include:

  • Zoom consultation with Professor Yakov Shekhter for planning.
  • Oncologist consultation with a melanoma specialist.
  • Imaging studies like PET-CT and Brain MRI.
  • Blood tests and pathology revision of existing samples.
  • A complete assessment package that combines multiple tests.

Professor Yakov Shekhter provides consultations via Zoom. He is a specialist in melanoma treatment planning. This allows for international access to expert care.

Treatment Options

The clinic offers two main treatment pathways. These include cutting-edge immunotherapy and surgical removal. The approach is tailored for each patient.

TIL (Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes) Therapy is an advanced immunotherapy. It involves infusing specially prepared immune cells. The treatment aims to target the cancer aggressively.

The program typically runs around $125,000. It includes laboratory preparation and up to 16 days of hospitalization. The package covers diagnostics, a central line, and key medications.

For suitable cases, tumor excision surgery is available. This procedure removes the melanoma surgically. The cost depends on the tumor's location and complexity.

Prices for surgery may range from $2,500 to $22,000. This usually includes the surgical procedure and anesthesia. Pathological evaluation of the removed tissue is separate.

He underwent surgery to replace the hip joint. Wing V was in the orthopedics department on the third floor. The next day, he got up and walked along the corridor with the walker. By evening, he himself took the first steps up the stairs holding the railing. On the third day he was discharged from the hospital and got home by taxi .. climbed the stairs without third-party items too. My result is super pro doctors special thanks to the surgeon Eran Avivi specialist and the pros of their business, as for me he is generally a wizard in the surgeon’s robe☺. tzu. Sheba ..... recommend 👍👍👍

A hospital is always a bad place by nature, but when you get a result that exceeds all expectations, this place becomes holy for you and good memories are associated with it. I want to say many thanks to everyone who participated in the rescue of my princess !!!

The largest medical center in Israel and the Middle East. Included in the top 10 best hospitals in the world according to the Newsweek weekly. A full range of medical services, including such innovative ones as CAR-T therapy for the treatment of lymphomas in children and adults. World-class doctors. Patients from abroad are treated through the Department of Medical Tourism.

Thank you very much to God and the doctors who save people here, I wish everyone to know as little as possible or not to know these places. But since such a test has come in life, it must be passed with the help of God and these doctors.

The city is in the city. So you can call the Tel a Shomer hospital. Or the Sheba Medical Center. Inpatient; operative and outpatient diagnostic treatment. The institutes of urology, surgery, therapy, cardiology and others offer treatment to patients. More than 300,000 people work. There is a supermarket in the hospital, cafes and rststorany, Roladin confectionery, pizzeria and department stores, pharmacies.

The level of medicine in Israel is really high. There are no complaints to the medical staff. I can sympathize with non-Israelis who are forced to overpay all kinds of intermediaries and receive questionable services at the pre-medical stage of their stay in Israel. In practice, one thing can be advised - try to find friends or relatives who can help you organize medical care in Israel without cheating.
