ABOUT THE DOCTOR
I'm a board-certified neurosurgeon and Director of the Spinal Unit in the Department of Neurosurgery at Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem, treating patients in both public and private practice. I specialize in spine disorders including degenerative disease, trauma, tumors, and cancer-related conditions, with particular expertise in metastatic spine and brain tumors, working closely with oncology and radiology colleagues on collaborative care.
My father, partially paralyzed by polio, inspired my mission to help people regain mobility, shaping how I treat patients who are paralyzed or have a chance to walk again. I am a thoughtful listener and give honest, transparent advice, treating every patient like family.
I grew up in Boston and trained at Tel Aviv University, which deepened my connection to Israel. In October 2023 I spent several weeks providing critical care near the Gaza border, and in 2026 I made aliyah and now live and work here full-time. Outside of medicine, I'm a husband, father of four, and living kidney donor.
