. In addition, with Israel being a nation dealing with complex security issues and low intensity conflicts on an ongoing basis, I deal daily with crisis management, complex decision-making and leadership issues.
Prior to my current position, I held professional leadership positions in two Israeli hospitals as a general surgeon.
I believe that having the opportunity to learn from and share ideas with peers from other countries, who bring different perspectives and vast experiences, will enrich and benefit us, to address the current and future challenges of an aging society and promote the Israeli Health System
