After wandering around Russian hospitals, I went to Israel to examine a lung mass that appeared 2 years after the melanoma was removed . I was preparing for the worst, saying goodbye to life. In Israel, they met me and escorted me to the clinic. I took a blood test and a PET CT. While I was waiting for the results (2 days), I was shaking all over. And finally, a consultation with a professor and unexpected happiness - I do not have a malignant neoplasm! Now we will find out what kind of mass is on the image - another examination is ahead. But the main thing is - I do not have cancer!

Many thanks to all the doctors and staff of Melanoma Unit in Israel. I was diagnosed and had two operations regarding melanoma. My arrival and treatment were organized very quickly and promptly. Everything was professional! I was accompanied throughout my stay in Israel, during consultations and diagnostics, operations, and even when buying medicines. All my questions during treatment in Israel and after returning to Russia were solved quickly and competently by phone and e-mail. I recommend to anyone who is faced with this problem to go to the Melanoma Unit! Reliable clinics with professionals in their field. And I wish the clinic all the best and prosperity and good luck!

She underwent digital dermatoscopy FotoFinder on the recommendation of an Israeli doctor. Everything was done very quickly and in a few minutes the study map was ready. In general, an interesting technique, every year you undergo a survey and get information: what's new has grown, whether the old spots have changed. It is very valuable in terms of further observation of moles — that's how the professor explained to me.

In September 2018, my mother was diagnosed with melanoma (skin cancer). We learned from the Internet how malignant and aggressive it is. From here they also learned about the treatment in Israel, about the Melanoma Unit clinic and did not regret it.
I called Rostislav, a representative of the clinic, and he told me everything in detail about the upcoming treatment of my mother. Time passed, not in favor of us, so without hesitation, we decided to go!
Arriving in Tel Aviv, we were met at the airport. And on the same day, Mom was already at a reception with Professor Chaim Gutman. He is a true professional in his field! According to the tests and examinations that took place at the clinic, it was decided to operate on my mother. Professor Gutman himself operated!
All employees at the Melanoma Unit clinic are qualified and competent specialists in their field. They guided my mother from the beginning, as soon as I turned to them with a diagnosis and until now, as soon as a question or doubt arises, we keep in touch with Rostislav.
We would like to express our great GRATITUDE to all your friendly team! GOOD HEALTH to all! The Lomakin family is from Belgorod.

During the examination, my wife was found to have a melanoma metastasis, but the primary tumor could not be found. Local doctors said that the metastasis could not be removed and suggested chemotherapy. From the experience of friends, I know what chemotherapy is and how difficult it is to tolerate, and we decided to undergo an examination in Israel. As it turned out later, it was the right decision. In the Israeli clinic, we did blood tests, a revision of the blocks, histochemistry, MRI and PET CT - no metastases or malignant nodes! This was confirmed after the operation, which, by the way, we did there. Of course, we spent money on diagnostics and treatment, but my wife's life is worth it.

After removing a mole on my face, it turned out to be melanoma. Despite the doctors' assurances that everything was fine, my heart was uneasy and we went to Israel. And, as it turned out, for good reason - a histology revision revealed poor-quality melanoma removal. I immediately underwent a second operation with a wider skin coverage, and the examination showed that there were no metastases. I don't even know what would have happened if I had spared the money and left everything as is! By the way, I really liked the atmosphere in the Israeli clinic - everything is just super!
