When my infant daughter needed urgent pyeloplasty, Dr. Raviv explained everything using 3D models of her own anatomy and FaceTimed us during recovery when COVID restrictions limited visitation. Extraordinary care.
My 82-year-old mother was diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome and we were terrified. Dr. Kenet didn't just treat her blood disorder - she treated our entire family with compassion. She explained everything in simple terms, created a gentle treatment plan that considered my mother's frailty, and even called us personally with test results. Mom's quality of life improved dramatically under her care.
When our 7-year-old daughter was diagnosed with ITP, we were panicked. Dr. Kenet was our rock - she knelt down to talk to our daughter at eye level, used stuffed animals to explain platelets, and made the hospital feel less scary. Her follow-up care has been exceptional, and our daughter now calls her 'the nice blood doctor'.

I came to Dr. Kenet for a second opinion about my polycythemia vera. She spent two hours reviewing my records, asked insightful questions, and proposed a completely different treatment approach. Six months later, my symptoms have dramatically improved. She's brilliant but never arrogant.
Following up after my hemophilia treatment, Dr. Kenet noticed I was struggling with the emotional aspect of chronic illness. She connected me with support resources and checked in personally between appointments. She treats the whole person, not just the blood disorder.
My teenage son was diagnosed with sickle cell crisis during a family vacation in Israel. Dr. Kenet took over his care at Sheba and was phenomenal - she managed his pain effectively, explained everything to him directly (not just to us parents), and coordinated with his home hematologist in the States.
The recovery process was smooth thanks to Dr. abraham avigdor's expertise. Highly recommend for bone marrow transplantation treatment.
