Personal Care

Each and every patient receives unparalleled, compassionate medical attention that takes their physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual needs into account.

Sheba Medical Center’s Global Reach

Researchers are tirelessly dedicated to discovering revolutionary advances in treatment protocols and disease prevention that are exported across the globe. Sheba is and will continue to be a world leader in medical technology applications and devices.

Sheba operates as a hospital without borders, with an unwavering dedication to treat all patients, regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion, nationality or identity. Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Druze patients all travel to Sheba from across the Middle East.

Because of Sheba’s commitment to treating every patient equally, and because of Sheba’s all-inclusive medical philosophy, Eleanor Roosevelt dubbed Sheba the “House of Humanitarian Endeavor.”

The hospital fosters peace through medicine by sending its doctors across the world to bring care to those in desperate need. Sheba’s medical experts have traveled far and wide to administer aid, deliver support and train locals, including to places like Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Brazil, Cambodia, Equatorial Guinea, Haiti, Ivory Coast, Kosovo, Mozambique, Peru, Russia, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Zambia and more.

And from its start as a military hospital in 1948, Sheba steadfastly and passionately cares for Israel’s soldiers.
