Soroka offers recognized excellence and innovation across the entire medical spectrum: prevention, research, diagnosis, education and integrated care for all medical areas including cancer, genetics, brain and trauma. Soroka is essential to meeting the medical needs of the Israel Defense Forces. With 17,000 babies born here last year, Soroka’s department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is the busiest in Israel with extraordinary staff and stellar outcomes for our patients. Their world-class team’s very strong focus on research delivers state-of-the-art care, and makes a real difference in the lives of the women of Israel’s south and their families.
