When my 8-year-old daughter developed mysterious fevers that other doctors dismissed, Dr. Lidar noticed subtle patterns others missed. She ordered specific tests that revealed an autoimmune condition early. Her ability to connect with children while maintaining professional excellence is remarkable.
Rushed to Sheba with septic shock, I remember Dr. Lidar's calm authority cutting through the chaos. She coordinated three specialist teams while explaining everything to my terrified family. Her quick decisions and around-the-clock monitoring literally saved my life during those critical 48 hours.
What I thought would be a routine physical turned into a life-changing appointment. Dr. Lidar detected a faint heart murmur others had missed for years. Her thorough examination and subsequent referral caught my mitral valve issue before it became critical. Routine? Maybe. Exceptional? Absolutely.
Following my complex abdominal surgery, Dr. Lidar's post-operative care was nothing short of brilliant.

Her follow-up care prevented a readmission.
As an 82-year-old with multiple chronic conditions, I was losing hope until Dr. Lidar took over my care. She spent an hour reviewing my medications, actually listened to my concerns about side effects, and created a simplified regimen that finally worked. Her compassionate approach made me feel heard for the first time in years.
