Sheba Medical Center Reviews

My follow-up visit felt like meeting an old friend who happens to be a medical genius. Dr. Borik remembered details from my case from two years ago and noticed subtle changes in my EKG that others might miss. That's the kind of attention that saves lives.

As an athlete with unexplained fatigue, multiple doctors dismissed me. Dr. Borik ordered specialized tests that revealed a rare congenital condition. Her sports cardiology knowledge gave me back my active lifestyle with proper management.

Watching Dr. Borik explain my mother's terminal heart condition with such honesty and compassion was breathtaking. She didn't offer false hope but gave us dignity and a pain management plan that let mom enjoy her final months. Medicine at its most human.

The way Dr. Borik coordinated with my oncologist during chemotherapy was masterful. She created a cardiac protection plan that allowed my cancer treatment to continue safely. This kind of interdisciplinary care is rare and precious.

My husband's sudden cardiac arrest would have been fatal without Dr. Borik's rapid response team. Her round-the-clock monitoring in the ICU and detailed family updates showed extraordinary commitment. We owe her his life.

Traveling from abroad specifically for Dr. Borik's expertise was worth every mile. Her innovative approach to my rare valve condition involved technology unavailable in my country. The entire international patient experience was seamless.

As a young woman with heart palpitations, previous doctors blamed anxiety. Dr. Borik took me seriously, diagnosed POTS, and created a management plan that actually works. Finally, a cardiologist who listens to female patients!

Dr. Borik's preventive approach caught my pre-diabetes and hypertension before they damaged my heart. Her nutrition and exercise recommendations were practical, not judgmental. She's not just fixing hearts - she's preventing problems.

The genetic counseling Dr. Borik provided after my diagnosis revealed a hereditary condition affecting three generations of our family. Her comprehensive family screening approach has potentially saved countless relatives we didn't know were at risk.

Brought my 82-year-old mother with advanced Parkinson's to Dr. Baer after three neurologists gave up. Dr. Baer spent 90 minutes just observing her tremors, then adjusted her medication with micro-dosing precision. For the first time in years, mom could drink from a cup without spilling. She treats the person, not just the disease.

Our 7-year-old daughter started having absence seizures at school. Dr. Baer knelt down to eye-level, showed her brain models, and made her laugh during the EEG. She explained everything to us in clear terms without medical jargon. We finally have answers and a treatment plan that doesn't scare our child.

Rushed to Sheba's ER with sudden vision loss and headache. Dr. Baer suspected CVST immediately and ordered the right scans while other doctors were still thinking migraine. Her quick thinking saved me from a stroke. She stayed past her shift to monitor my heparin drip herself.

Came for what I thought was a routine migraine follow-up. Dr. Baer noticed subtle weakness in my smile I hadn't even recognized. Ordered an urgent MRI that found a tiny aneurysm. Her attention to detail literally saved my life - caught it before it ruptured.

Complex brain surgery for my trigeminal neuralgia that 4 surgeons said was too risky. Dr. Baer developed a novel approach using real-time neuroimaging. Woke up with zero facial numbness and no more electric shock pain. She redefined what's possible in neurosurgery.

Follow-up after my MS diagnosis was devastating. Dr. Baer didn't just prescribe meds - she connected me with support groups, gave me dietary plans, and even recommended specific exercises. She treats the whole journey, not just the MRI lesions.

My teenager with Tourette's was embarrassed by his tics. Dr. Baer had him demonstrate his 'superpowers' and showed him famous people with neurological differences. Left the appointment feeling proud instead of ashamed. She understands the psychology behind the neurology.

Emergency transfer from another hospital with status epilepticus. Dr. Baer took over the case at 2 AM, tried a combination of medications others hadn't considered, and broke the seizure cycle after 8 hours. Her calm under pressure was incredible.

Routine checkup for my essential tremor turned into a genetic counseling session when Dr. Baer noticed family pattern. Discovered we have a rare neurological condition running through generations. She helped our entire family get testing and support.

Flying in from abroad for my rare movement disorder. Dr. Baer coordinated with my local doctor, arranged all tests in one day, and even helped with translation services. World-class expertise with personal touch.

Post-concussion syndrome after a car accident - every doctor dismissed my persistent dizziness. Dr. Baer was the first to perform vestibular testing and prescribe targeted rehab. After 6 months of suffering, I'm finally recovering.
