Israel’s Sheba Medical Center is once again ranked among the world’s ten best hospitals. Newsweek ranked Sheba at number nine overall. It came in behind four American medical institutions that are among the most renowned in the world” The Mayo Clinic, The Cleveland Clinic, The Johns Hopkins Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital.
The ranking is especially significant this year as Sheba Medical Center has been at the center of treating the soldiers wounded in the fighting in Gaza.
“This is an extraordinary expression of confidence by the international community in the medical system in Israel,” said Prof. Yitshak Kreiss, director of the Sheba Medical Center: “I dedicate this achievement to the entire Israeli health system, whose strengths stood out even more during the test of war. This achievement is further evidence of the resilience of the health system, which continues to be as always an anchor for the State of Israel.”
