Good afternoon. We faced the diagnosis of epilepsy a few months ago. My healthy, energetic, and well-developed child suddenly turned into a patient. I, not believing the doctors in our small town, took my son to Moscow. Specialists from the Russian Children’s Hospital, the clinic of Dm. Rogachev, the Institute of St. Luke replaced each other, but only hope that all of them are wrong was warming in my soul. I decided to turn for help to the specialists of Migdal Medical Clinic. As you know, Israel has the best medicine in the world. We left an application on the clinic`s website and soon we were booked for a consultation with Prof. Uri Kramer. We sent all the studies we had, and the day of the consultation was appointed. I would like to note the harmonious work of all the staff. Any question was worked out and all necessary explanations were given. The consultation took place at that strictly appointed time. The professor, to my great regret, confirmed the diagnosis and the correctness of the prescribed treatment, gave his recommendations. It is very important to me that the clinic promises to accompany my child for a year in case of problems and questions during the treatment. It is difficult for us, we are only at the beginning of the road to cure, so support and counseling in the course of treatment is so necessary. In conclusion, I would like to say that if you have even the slightest doubt that your child really needs such a complex and long-term treatment, or our specialists are not able to find a solution to your problem, I advise you to turn to the experience of world experts and no longer doubt the correctness of your actions. Be healthy!
The consultation was excellent. DR. Kramer explained our case in detail, gave all recommendations, prescribed treatment, answered all my questions! I trusted him immediately. He was very attentive to every detail and asked me all that details of the attack!

Responsive staff. After the online consultation and treatment appointment, we can ask any question 24/7 and get a detailed answer. We are very glad that we were almost immediately with Professor Uri Kramer and started that treatment.

I was faced with the diagnosis "Epilepsy in sleep". Doctors in Ukraine could not give me an answer as to what to do and how to treat it. I turned to Migdal Medical Clinic in the hope of finally finding a solution to what to do. And here I was immediately answered all my questions. They explained the cause of the attacks and the main treatment. As it turned out, with the help of the right medication it is possible to completely control the attacks and live life to fullest. Thank you :)
Good afternoon to everyone who has faced epilepsy in themselves or their loved ones. I am addressing you, as we ourselves became in this "circle" a month ago. Our daughter has epilepsy and she has to live with it. We have passed for a month a huge number of studies, but we local epileptologists gave us different diagnosis, which differed from each other, but deciding that we need the view of a professional with fast experience was decided to turn to Professor Uri Kramer. I can say the following about my impressions, the Professor is a professional. He scrutinizes all the documents provided, listens to you very thoroughly, pays attention to every detail and makes a correct diagnosis literally within an hour. However, if you, as we have decided to turn to Migdai Medical, then strictly follow the instructions, collect all studies in full, as this will help to understand more quickly what is wrong with you or your loved once. Yes, the consultation is quite expensive, but it is worth it. You will get answers to all your questions, get the necessary recommendations and be able to act in a targeted manner. You can specify and send additional studies, which you will be recommended to carry out even after a verbal consultation with the Professor, which is a huge plus in the fight against the disease. Migdal Medical are truly specialist which capital letter. Do not be afraid, you will be heard. Good luck to all the specialists of the clinic and those who are struggling with this disease. And of course remember that your loved ones need you and a positive attitude will help you.
I took my kid to Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center for treatment of his epilepsy. There I was attended by Dr. Uri Kramer who is a great specialist and did a lot to treat my kid. I am so satisfied and pleased with the outcomes.
