Shamir Medical Centre (Assaf Harofeh)
The Shamir Medical Centre (Assaf Harofeh) is the third largest government hospital in Israel providing modern, comprehensive care to the residents of Rishon le Zion, Lod, Ramle, and settlements along the “Old Road to Jerusalem.”
The hospital cares for an ever-growing population, estimated today at half a million. As well as the inhabitants of the area and soldiers in the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF), many patients seen at the Shamir Medical Centre (Assaf Harofeh) are new immigrants from Russia and Ethiopia.
