Welcome from the School Director
Welcome to Sagol School of International Health. Over the past twenty-five years, we have trained outstanding physicians - doctors who feel a deep commitment to providing the highest quality medical care to their patients, regardless of their socioeconomic status, while also striving to advance medical knowledge through research. From your very first year at our school, you will be exposed to an innovative course in artificial intelligence and medicine, and you will learn how to interview and examine patients in a professional and empathetic manner. We believe that excellent physicians not only treat disease but also take a leading role in disease prevention and the promotion of public health. We are committed to training exceptional young physicians who will care for the residents of the Negev and of Israel, with the understanding that modern medicine is a global field - what occurs in one part of the world may impact our local population. We view the practice of medicine as a privilege and an honor and invite you to learn more about our unique medical school. | ![]() Prof. Alan Jotkowitz MD, Director |
