Who is eligible for the second medical opinion service?

• For those who doubt their diagnosis

• For those for whom doctors cannot make an accurate diagnosis for a long time, they change their recommendations and drug treatment

• For those for whom pharmacotherapy does not bring effective results

• Those whose mental health is deteriorating due to prescribed treatment

• Those who need professional advice from Israeli specialists regarding the chosen treatment strategy or examination results

• Psychiatrists, psychotherapists, psychologists in the process of differential diagnosis, to select a method of therapy

• For those who want to know about new methods of treating their disease

A case from the practice of “IsraClinic”. A young man from Russia came to the clinic regarding his wife’s case. He described in detail the history of her illness, her diagnosis, and methods of treatment. Unfortunately, a combination of electroconvulsive therapy and insulin therapy was chosen for therapy, the effectiveness of which and their combination is highly questionable. In addition, such methods have not been used in Israel for a long time. The young man described in detail the condition of his wife after such therapy: according to specialists at the IsraClinic clinic, the treatment could lead to catastrophic consequences, including the complete loss of higher mental functions, because of which an urgent Skype conference was organized with the patient’s relatives and her attending physicians. Thanks to the recommendations of IsraClinic specialists, the treatment was adjusted, the patient began to recover and after some time was discharged from the hospital with significant improvements.
