Department of Anesthesia at Hillel Yaffe Medical Center

Introduction to the Department of Anesthesia

Welcome to the Department of Anesthesia, where our mission is to ensure patient safety and comfort before, during, and after surgical procedures. Anesthesia is a dynamic field dedicated to the meticulous management and care of patients, with a strong emphasis on patient safety and well-being.

Our work begins outside the operating room with a preoperative meeting to understand each patient's medical and surgical history, and to address any fears and concerns. Alleviating patient anxiety before surgery is essential, as surgery can be one of the most daunting experiences a person may face.

Anesthesia requires continuous medical knowledge in various fields, including surgery, internal medicine, and emergency medicine. Our anesthesiologists are experts in pharmacology, pathophysiology, and anatomy, enabling them to assess, diagnose, and treat patients in real-time. This expertise allows us to create tailored anesthesia plans for each patient's unique needs and conditions.

Our department specializes in airway management, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, pain control, and advanced life support (ALS). We play a crucial role in various hospital procedures, providing anesthesia outside the operating room for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes, and performing life-saving actions such as intubations, resuscitations, and trauma care.

At the Department of Anesthesia, we are committed to providing the highest standard of care, ensuring that every patient receives personalized and compassionate treatment.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at 04-7744257 or 04-7744529 or via email at anesthesia.hillel.yaffe@gmail.com. 

Our secretary, Dina Goshkowitz, can also be reached at dinag@hymc.gov.il or by phone at 04-7744501.
