Providing advanced care for women and families across southern Israel
The Obstetrics and Gynecology Ultrasound Institute at Soroka Medical Center provides highly specialized care in obstetrics gynecology and assisted reproductive medicine. The Institute performs a wide range of advanced diagnostic and interventional procedures including routine pregnancy scans fetal echocardiography high risk pregnancy monitoring Doppler ultrasound amniocentesis chorionic villus sampling and lifesaving intrauterine procedures.
As the only major medical center in the Negev, Soroka serves one of the fastest growing populations in Israel with nearly 17,000 births each year. The Institute plays a critical role in diagnosing and monitoring complex pregnancies and gynecological conditions for women throughout southern Israel.
Each year approximately 16,000 procedures are performed at the Institute and demand continues to rise. Over the past decade activity has increased by nearly 40 percent reflecting both the rapid growth of the region and the increasing need for advanced maternal and fetal care.
For many years the Institute operated in an outdated and overcrowded space that lacked the privacy comfort and infrastructure required for modern patient centered care. Women undergoing sensitive examinations and invasive procedures had limited privacy and the facility did not include private dressing areas or a dedicated recovery room.
To meet the highest international standards of care Soroka has established a new state of the art Obstetrics and Gynecology Ultrasound Institute designed to support the growing needs of women and families across the Negev. The new facility includes spacious examination rooms equipped with advanced technology additional treatment and procedure rooms accessible spaces for patients and family members private dressing areas and upgraded waiting areas designed to improve comfort dignity and patient experience.
The new Institute spans approximately 380 square meters and represents an important investment in the future of women’s health in southern Israel.
