Features of Checkup in Israel

Clinics in Israel, which hold leading positions in diagnostics and successfully compete on the global medical services market with clinics and medical centers in the USA or EU countries, will help you preserve your health and detect any pathology at the earliest stage.

Today, most Israeli clinics use a diagnostic program called Check Up. The term 'Check-Up' translated from English means 'inspection, check, clarification' and is used to denote early diagnosis of diseases or risk factors for these diseases, thus helping to provide timely treatment for full recovery and prevention of complications.

The Check Up program is individual for each person, accordingly the price for an examination in Israel varies widely. But thanks to the practice of medical tourism, such an examination will cost you much less than a similar medical examination in the EU or USA countries.

To undergo early diagnosis, you need to choose one of the clinics in Israel. At the clinic, an individual diagnostic program will be developed for you, and recommendations will be given on preparation for certain types of examinations. When undergoing an individual diagnostic program, you will receive a package of documents with a complete medical report on your health status, and recommendations regarding further treatment or rehabilitation. The equipment with the latest devices in Israeli clinics allows you to undergo all medical examinations in one facility. The timeframe for examination in Israel is strictly individual and depends on how many and which tests are included in the diagnostic program.

A full examination in Israel comes in two options: basic and extended. Which option is right for you is determined by the doctor, again strictly individually.

A basic examination is usually performed on an outpatient basis, takes 2-3 days, and includes a consultation with the attending physician, as well as laboratory and instrumental methods of examination. During the consultation, complaints are clarified, a history of the disease and life is taken, and a sequence of examinations is drawn up. Laboratory tests include various analyses, typically blood, urine, and stool. Instrumental methods include patient hardware examination: ECG, EchoCG, CT, ultrasound of various organs and systems, endoscopy, gastroscopy, rectocolonoscopy, histological examinations. It should be noted that during diagnosis, the gender of the examined patient is also taken into account, so examinations for men and women of the same age and even with similar pathology may differ.

Most of you may ask: 'Why Israel after all?' We have several arguments:

• Price. As mentioned earlier, a similar examination in the USA or Europe will cost several times more.

• There are practically no queues for diagnostics.

• You will not only undergo a complete medical examination at the highest level, but also be able to visit the unique attractions of Israel.
