But it happens to the best of us. So I figured now would be a great time to talk about going to the doctor and medical care in Israel.<\/p>\n<h3>Israeli Healthcare<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Israel has one of the most technologically advanced and highest-quality healthcare systems in the world. Hospitals in Israel are equipped with modern facilities and high-quality medical technology. Medical staff are trained from four to six years in one of the country&#8217;s five university medical schools. The country is a world leader in advanced infrastructure of medical and paramedical research, and bioengineering capabilities. Biotechnology, medical, and clinical research account for over half of Israel&#8217;s scientific publications, and the industrial sector uses this extensive knowledge to develop new pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, and treatment therapies.<\/p>\n<h3>Common Ailments<\/h3>\n<p>I feel (masc)&#8230; &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ah-NEE mar-GEESH\">\u05d0\u05e0\u05d9 \u05de\u05e8\u05d2\u05d9\u05e9\u05c1<\/span><br \/>\nI feel (fem)&#8230; &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ah-NEE mar-GEESH-ah\">\u05d0\u05e0\u05d9 \u05de\u05e8\u05d2\u05d9\u05e9\u05c1\u05d4<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">dizzy &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"s-khar-kho-reht\">\u05e1\u05d7\u05e8\u05d7\u05d5\u05e8\u05ea<\/span><br \/>\nweak &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"khool-shah\">\u05d7\u05d5\u05dc\u05e9\u05c1\u05d4<\/span><br \/>\ncold\/shivering &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ts-mahr-moh-roht\">\u05e6\u05de\u05e8\u05de\u05d5\u05e8\u05d5\u05ea<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I have (a\/an)&#8230; &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"yesh lee\">\u05d9\u05e9\u05c1 \u05dc\u05d9&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">allergy &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"al-er-gee-ah\">\u05d0\u05dc\u05e8\u05d2\u05d9\u05d4<\/span><br \/>\ncold &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"tsee-noon\">\u05e6\u05d9\u05e0\u05d5\u05df<\/span><br \/>\ncough &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"shee-'ool\">\u05e9\u05d9\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc<\/span><br \/>\ndiarrhea &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"sheel-shool\">\u05e9\u05dc\u05e9\u05d5\u05dc<\/span><br \/>\nfever &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"khom\">\u05d7\u05d5\u05dd<\/span><br \/>\nheadache &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ke-'ev rosh\">\u05db\u05d0\u05d1 \u05e8\u05d0\u05e9<\/span><br \/>\nsore throat &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ke-'ev gah-rohn\">\u05db\u05d0\u05d1 \u05d2\u05e8\u05d5\u05df<\/span><br \/>\npain &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ke'ev\">\u05db\u05d0\u05d1<\/span><br \/>\nstomach ache &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ke'ev beh-ten\">\u05db\u05d0\u05d1\u05d9 \u05d1\u05d8\u05df<\/span><br \/>\nsunburn &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"mah-kaht sheh-mesh\">\u05de\u05db\u05ea \u05e9\u05de\u05e9<\/span><br \/>\ntoothache &#8211; <span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 21px; font-family: times new roman;\" title=\"ke-'ev shee-nah-'eem\">\u05db\u05d0\u05d1 \u05e9\u05d9\u05e0\u05d9\u05d9\u05dd<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>The Doctor May Say<\/h3>\n<p><strong>To a male<\/strong><br \/>\nWhat&#8217;s the matter?
