The individual inpatient programme at Assuta hospitals allows inpatients to order a variety of high-quality personalised services according to their needs:
In the heart of Israel, the city of Tel Aviv, is the Assuta Ramat Hachayal clinic. It was opened in 2009, combining the functions of Assuta Tel Aviv and Assuta Petah Tikva.
The clinic is located in a 10-storey building and has 16 modern operating rooms, where the new generation equipment is available. The Assuta Ramat Hachayal hospital is designed for 200 beds and 12 beds in the intensive care unit. The clinic has 2 own laboratories, as well as one of the largest branches of visual diagnostics in Israel.
The clinic was built by a popular company from Canada, and the American College of Radiology was planning the visual diagnostic department.
It is Assuta Ramat Hachayal, which includes the Institute of Oncology, which is considered one of the best in the treatment of cancer in Israel.
In Assuta Ramat Hachayal, there are advanced technologies and the best specialists in haematology and hemato-oncology, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, dialysis, heart disease, general surgery, cervical disease, IVF, and bronchoscopy.
Assuta Hospital uses advanced diagnostic methods such as CT, MRI and PET scans to detect malignant tumours. These methods allow doctors to determine the exact location of the tumour, its shape, size, position relative to surrounding organs and rate of growth.
To diagnose brain tumours, the clinic's specialists also use biopsies, which allow them to examine tumour tissue for the presence of cancer cells. Biopsies of brain tumours are performed during surgery or using a minimally invasive method, which involves taking tumour samples through a small opening in the head.
Specialists prescribe chemotherapy drugs to patients orally or intravenously. The most common drug for treating brain cancer is Temodar (Temozolomide).
To remove malignant tumours of the pancreas and metastases in the liver, doctors at the Assuta Medical Centre use a Nano-knife. The technology is also used to remove tumours in the liver, lungs, kidneys, pancreas and prostate gland. Surgery with a Nano-knife is ideal for inoperable patients, as it eliminates incisions and has minimal impact on healthy tissues and organs. Nano-knife destroys cancer cells using electric currents. The procedure minimises the likelihood of postoperative complications, provides for a quick recovery period and the possibility of repeating the operation if new malignant formations appear.
The Radiotherapy Department at Assuta Medical Centre is considered the best in Israel and one of the best in the world. It is equipped with the latest generation of accelerators – True Beam. They allow deep penetration of malignant tumours and destroy the maximum number of cancer cells with a high dose of radiation. Cancer treatment with the True Beam linear accelerator is the safest for healthy organs, as it directs radiation with millimetre precision directly at the tumour.
The device reduces the duration of the radiation procedure, as it emits four times more radiation than older models. For additional protection of healthy tissue, the linear accelerator has a built-in system of video sensors that respond to the patient's movements. At the slightest movement of the patient's body, the radiation is automatically paused so as not to damage healthy organs. After that, the radiation beam refocuses on the tumour. Thanks to the True Beam accelerator, prostate cancer patients at Assuta Hospital undergo 32 radiation sessions instead of 40. And the recovery rate from lung cancer has increased from 10% to 90%.
The medical center for the diagnosis and treatment of melanoma is located in Tel Aviv and is part of the Assuta Medical Group. The melanoma unit specializes in all types of skin cancer.
The melanoma unit is considered to be the leading clinic in oncodermatology in large part due to the fact that the best specialists in oncological diseases such as Professor Gutman and Professor Jacob Shekhter are gathered here. The clinic has the latest microscopes that allow you to examine the tumor directly during surgery and remove it layer by layer, as well as modern installations for computer and magnetic nuclear tomography which determines the presence of metastases.
The clinic is testing innovative drugs. Patients have the opportunity, if desired, to participate in experimental therapy. In the melanoma unit there is availability of the only system of digital dermatoscopy FotoFinder bodystudio ATBM for the whole of Israel for detecting skin neoplasm.
This system is one of the most effective existing methods of early detection of skin cancer. Also in the melanoma unit, a biopsy of watchful lymph nodes is performed – Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB).
At the same time, a sentinel lymph node is identified and removed in order to identify cancer cells.
The procedure helps to determine the prevalence of breast cancer and melanoma. In addition, the clinic uses innovative therapies, namely TIL (tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes). This is a procedure in which the tumor cells are destroyed by the patient’s own lymphocytes.
This department diagnoses and treats all types of gastrointestinal diseases of varying severity. The hospital offers innovative examination technology using a miniature capsule with a video camera. This method helps diagnose diseases of the digestive system.
The procedure is completely painless. The patient swallows a special small capsule, which passes through all sections of the gastrointestinal tract, displaying clear images on the screen that allow Assuta doctors to assess the condition of the mucous membrane of the oesophagus, stomach, small and large intestines.
The department performs gastrointestinal endoscopy, which allows for a detailed examination of the damaged area of the digestive system and the necessary laboratory tests.
During endoscopy, specialists also have the opportunity to remove polyps without open surgery. To diagnose gastroesophageal reflux, manometry is performed here, during which the pressure in all parts of the oesophagus and stomach is examined.
Assuta Clinic performs a wide range of surgical procedures. These include operations for urological and gynaecological conditions, as well as disorders of the liver and pancreas. Assuta doctors also perform endocrine surgery and transplantations. In total, more than 80,000 operations are performed each year in the network's clinics, which is equal to 13% of all surgical procedures in Israel.
A team of specialists is involved in the treatment of each patient, including a surgeon, anaesthesiologist, and intensive care specialist, as well as a specialist in the field in which the operation is being performed. Doctors work in hybrid operating rooms, which are equipped to combine the most modern intraoperative and minimally invasive surgical technologies. This makes it possible to perform organ-preserving surgeries that are easier for patients to tolerate.
Robotic surgery is also available here – Assuta has a Da Vinci system. Its use ensures more precise surgical intervention, as the doctor can perform the smallest movements under camera control. Since Assuta clinics pay special attention to the safety of operations, they have the lowest patient infection rate in Israel.
Assuta Hospital employs leading Israeli doctors with practical experience in orthopaedics (over 15 years). The following procedures are performed here:
Assuta Hospital in Tel Aviv also uses an innovative American technique for tendon fusion. The cost of this treatment is lower than that of traditional methods, and the results are better. This advanced American technology is less traumatic, allows for a quick recovery, and has a minimal risk of complications.
The Assuta RELAX Recovery Centre is located within the hospital complex. It allows patients who are awaiting or recovering from hospitalisation to enjoy a unique stay that offers hotel-level hospitality with a high level of personalised service. While at the rehabilitation centre, patients can consult with a nurse or doctor.

Assuta Ramat HaSharon Hospital has a unique clinic for individualised and comprehensive pain treatment. This hospital is designed for patients over the age of 18 who suffer from chronic physical and mental pain.
