All the major hospitals in Israel have dedicated neurology departments which are staffed and equipped to treat the full gamut of neurological conditions. As with most fields of medicine in Israel, a strong emphasis is placed on holistic patient care, treating the whole person, and not just their illness. As such, all the neurology departments have multi-disciplinary teams, including neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, physiotherapists, and specialised nursing staff.

Each hospital has its own particular areas of specialisation within the field of neurology. Sheba Tel Hashomer Hospital has units for stroke patients, parkinson’s disease, epilepsy and other seizure disorders, caring for over 10,000 patients each year. Hadassah Hospital has a specialist unit for treating multiple sclerosis, a geriatric and alzheimers department, a dedicated stroke ward, a department for treatment and research into ALS and also has a clinic for assessment and treatment of all types of headache. Rambam Hospital, as well as offering a stroke ward and MS clinic, also boasts an innovation in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease with MRI-guided focused ultrasound for the non-invasive treatment of tremors.
