About the department
The Department of Oncology and Hematology at the Assuta Hospital Tel Aviv offers the full range of diagnostics and treatment of all types of cancer at any stages and in patients of any age group.

For example, they perform surgical interventions using modern minimally invasive methods, which mostly allow to preserve the integrity and functionality of the organ affected by the tumor, while among the available drugs choose only those that accurately affect cancer cells, without making harm to the healthy ones.
