The team behind MedHebrew

About us

Team MedHebrew — the medical-Hebrew platform for doctors, interns and new immigrants in Israel.

Why we built this

Starting to practise medicine in Israel means learning a second language on the job — one no textbook prepared you for. Ward rounds, patient histories, the phone call at 3 a.m. — all in Hebrew, fast, with lives on the line. For international graduates, interns and new immigrants (olim), that language gap is one of the hardest parts of the journey.

We are Team MedHebrew — people from the world of Israeli medicine who kept seeing the same thing: excellent doctors held back not by their medicine, but by the language around it. So we started building — one term, one guide, one chapter at a time — the resource we wish we'd had.

Everything in one place, in four languages — Hebrew, English, Russian and Arabic.

An honest note

Our materials are prepared with care, but medicine changes and every patient is different — always rely on your own clinical judgement and official sources.
