How can I find out if a surgeon licensed by the Israeli Board of
Surgery has been disbarred or is still in good standing and how can I
find out if their are any lawsuits against him?

Request for Question Clarification by vitalmed-ga on 08 Jan 2003 02:34 PST

Crewmanpete-ga,

My inquiry was just now acknowledged and I understand that it has been
forwarded to another person. I see you have one day left on this
message. Do you want to consider extending or reposting it if I have
not heard and posted an answer by then? They did not say when the
reply will be forthcoming.

Unfortunately, I cannot read Hebrew, but if you do, here are some
sites you may want to check:

Israel Ministry of Health
http://www.health.gov.il/

Israel Medical Association
www.ima.org.il/

Good luck!

I have an inquiry in to a person at the Israel Medical Association,
which is among things, the umbrella organization for the country's
medical specialty societies. I am fluent with Hebrew, and the IMA site
listed by THV, for your information, also has an English section:
www.ima.org.il/en. I hope to have some information to answer your
questions.
