Israeli Exchange Program Facilitates Information Exchange

Michael Lewis knows the advantages of physician visit programs. The professor of clinical anesthesiology and program director of anesthesiology at the University of Miami's Miller School of Medicine is a prestigious Fulbright Scholar.

"The IMA programs will allow physicians in private practice as well as in academia to work in Israel," he says.

Dr. Tzaki Siev-Ner, chair of IMA-WF's headquarters in Israel, says the application process for IMA physician visits takes about 2 months. He adds that the American physicians who participate in the IMA's programs will be giving as well as receiving.

"Israel is becoming short on physicians in all specialties, and there is a huge demand for anesthesiologists," Siev-Ner points out.
