Emergency

The emergency services offers a multitude of services all year long, 24 hours a day, providing premium care, while maintaining the quality of our service at any time, day or night. Our emergency department’s team has continuously demonstrated a wide range of skills and talents, particularly when faced with adverse situations such as explosions and war atrocities. New emergency room physicians with first-class experience have recently joined us. Their arrival has resulted into a major reorganization of the Emergency Department which has significantly enhanced our capabilities and boosted our potentials.
