As an 82-year-old with metastatic prostate cancer, I'd seen many oncologists. Dr. Zippel was different, he spent 45 minutes explaining treatment options in Yiddish (my preferred language) and never rushed me. His holistic approach addressing both my cancer and bone pain changed everything.
Emergency admission at 2 AM with acute leukemia complications. Dr. Zippel came in within 20 minutes, still perfectly composed. His calm decisiveness during the crisis, ordering exactly the right tests and medications, stopped the bleeding episode. He stayed until 5 AM monitoring my vitals himself.
Routine six-month follow-up turned into a life-changing moment when Dr. Zippel noticed subtle changes in my scans others might have missed. His early detection of recurrence allowed for minimally invasive intervention instead of major surgery. His observational skills are supernatural.
Complex Whipple procedure for pancreatic cancer, Dr. Zippel coordinated with three surgical teams at Sheba. What impressed me most was his Saturday visit to explain the 11-hour surgery to my family using anatomical models. The man operates with both technical mastery and profound humanity.
Dr. Zippel saved my 4-year-old daughter's life when she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma. He knelt down to her eye level, spoke in a gentle voice about 'fighting the bad cells,' and created a personalized treatment plan that minimized side effects. Two years later, she's cancer-free and still talks about 'Dr. Dov the superhero.'
