The Division of Surgery includes 18 surgical departments with 362 beds. Our surgical staff includes 280 surgeons and 500 nurses. We have 33 operating tables that are divided up as follows: 13 in the main operating block (to be expanded soon to 16), 9 in Day Surgery, 3 in Ophthalmology, 5 in Maxillo-Facial Surgery, and 3 at the Center of Advanced Technologies.
Our surgeons are actively involved in both basic and clinical research. They have published more than 100 scientific articles in many of the world's most prestigious medical journals.
The Division of Surgery is one of the preeminent surgical training facilities in Israel. Students from the Sackler School of Medicine at Tel Aviv University do their clinical clerkships in our departments. These are fifth and seventh year Israeli medical students, as well as American medical students in their final year.
About 110 residents are trained in all surgical disciplines for periods of four to six and a half years. In addition to Sheba residents, every year we admit about 20 residents, who need to complete their residencies in specific fields, from other hospitals.
