About the clinic

A cochlear implant can restore hearing for those with severe hearing loss. This procedure is available at Ichilov Medical Center in Tel Aviv, Israel. Costs range from $27,140 to $35,210 USD. Dr. Ofir Genzel, head of the Cochlear Implantation Service, offers 30 years of experience in this field.

Cochlear implants are small electronic devices. They can help people who cannot hear well with hearing aids. The implant bypasses damaged parts of the inner ear. It directly stimulates the auditory nerve. This allows the brain to perceive sound.

What to Expect

Before surgery, you will need several tests. These include blood tests, a CT scan, and audiometry. These tests help doctors plan the surgery. The surgery itself involves placing the implant under the skin. It's a delicate procedure done by experienced surgeons.

The package price includes a consultation with the medical team. It also includes necessary laboratory diagnostics. After the surgery, you’ll need outpatient adjustments for about one week. These adjustments help optimize the implant’s settings.

Dr. Ofir Genzel is an experienced ENT doctor. He has 30 years of experience helping patients. He is the Head of the Cochlear Implantation Service at Ichilov Medical Center. Ichilov utilizes a multidisciplinary approach. This means specialists in neurosurgery and plastic surgery work together. They provide complete care for each patient.

The medical trip didn't go well. I didn't get what I expected or wanted at all. It was a waste of a trip.

Good afternoon, Eugene. We thank you for your appeal. We are very sorry that your experience seemed negative. Although, we made every effort to achieve the desired result. I would like to note that all the procedures were agreed with you and carried out at the appointed time. Except for those tests that you decided to cancel on your own. Moreover, you received recommendations, based on the procedures performed, for additional tests for diagnosis, which you considered unnecessary. Medicine is an exact science and in some cases, in order to make a diagnosis, specialists need a more in-depth examination of the patient. In any case, based on the investigations you have had, you have been advised and we hope that you will continue your examination at a place that suits you. We wish you all the best on your road to recovery. Best wishes.

We are very grateful for the small chance that these doctors gave us

We received a detailed consultation with Dr. Pelles Sharon and her assistant Denis. They explained everything, gave me a treatment plan, and the doctor was very attentive to details. We are very grateful for the small chance that these doctors gave us. I would also like to note the work of the coordinator, Yulia. A very sensitive, empathetic specialist, she was able to organize everything quickly. Thanks a lot!

Service at the highest level

Service at the highest level. The doctor took exactly at the appointed time and spent about an hour. The problem was studied comprehensively and, as a result, logical recommendations were received and the doctor prescribed treatment. Accompanying Denis has extensive experience and a very interesting interlocutor. You have a good team! Well done!

Good day! During this treatment, I was only twice in this medical center, both times in the laboratory for blood donation, I waited 1 hour for the first time, 30 minutes for the second time, despite the fact that there was no visitor except me. All other actions, including the consultation of the doctor, were not in this clinic, so it is difficult for me, based on the foregoing, to make a different assessment. Also about the doctor. I was given the wrong doctor who was originally declared. I do not know anything about the current attending physician, please provide the data whenever possible. The doctor's conclusion, by the way, was also not carried out on Ichilov’s form — on a regular sheet and contains not the appointments that were made as a result, the doctor’s explanation of the side effects of the drugs (but I was going there, because your specialist said medicine without side effects and this was the key for me), appointed in the end and containing quite strong side effects.

I recommend

The staff is great. At the moment, we are waiting for the results of the tests, since the wrong diagnosis was made in Ukraine. In Ukraine, sarcoma was treated for 7 months and it is gone. We are not saying that there is no oncology, but the fact that there is no sarcoma is already pleasing. Received very nicely and politely. The coordinators are Russian-speaking. Every day they keep track of all matters. Those who passed the tests were not left alone for a single minute. Currently, we are waiting for a meeting with an oncologist and a radiologist. I recommend
