Available Diagnostic Services
Complete diagnostics are available to confirm thyroid cancer. The process often begins with blood tests to check thyroid hormone levels. Imaging helps visualize nodules.
- Blood and laboratory tests: This may cost around $210.
- Expert Consultation: A meeting with specialists like Dr. Inbar Finkel typically runs $850.
- Ultrasound (US): This scan of the neck costs around $750.
- MRI head: This detailed imaging is around $1,550.
- Second opinion PET-CT FDG: This scan for metastasis is about $750.
- Second opinion biopsy examination: Pathologic review of tissue samples costs around $650.
Surgical Treatment: Hemithyroidectomy
The main treatment offered is hemithyroidectomy. This is the surgical removal of half the thyroid gland. It is often recommended for early-stage cancers confined to one lobe.
The procedure aims to preserve healthy thyroid function. This can minimize the need for lifelong hormone replacement. Recovery is typically shorter than with full gland removal.
The price for this surgery is around $13,490. The package includes several key components.
- Hospitalization for up to 2 days after surgery.
- A histochemical examination of the removed tissue.
- Necessary laboratory tests.
The package does not cover flights or accommodation beyond the hospital stay. Sourasky Medical Center often provides free airport transfers for patients. To get an individual treatment plan, you can consult with the clinic specialists directly.

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!

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.

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
