I am an Israeli born, American raised and trained, adult endocrinologist who returned to Israel in 2019. I am grateful to be here, and to take care of the Hebrew-speaking and Anglo populations alike. I can also function in Spanish (if you have patience for grammatical errors).
I strongly believe in providing not just medical recommendations, but explanations - so that you can understand and fully participate in your own care.
