"After more than half a year of being sidelined by an injury, I finally returned to playing. Many factors contributed to my recovery, but above all, I owe my return and deepest gratitude to Professor Moshe Dudai. He was the only one who accurately diagnosed the severe injury, which stemmed from a previous surgery I underwent in the north. Prof. Dudai performed endoscopic surgery using a technique he developed for groin and abdominal muscle injuries. Following the surgery, I began rehabilitation according to his protocol and in coordination with the medical team in Be’er Sheva. Throughout the entire rehabilitation process, he was by my side, guiding and supporting me, and assured me that I would return to playing with the same abilities as before the injury. I trusted him both as a doctor and as a person, and thanks to that, I made my comeback. I wholeheartedly recommend that athletes suffering from groin and abdominal muscle injuries consult with Professor Moshe Dudai."

"After suffering for months from groin pain to the point of being unable to play, I was recommended to be examined by Prof. Dudai, who diagnosed me with groin injuries as well as abdominal muscle issues. Although they wanted to operate on me in Switzerland, I preferred Prof. Dudai, who performed an endoscopic surgery on both groins. My recovery was smooth and quick, and I was able to resume training and return to my previous fitness level under his guidance. I can wholeheartedly testify that Prof. Dudai is a world-class surgeon, one of the best, and also a doctor who genuinely cares about his patients."

"After countless meetings with doctors, expert opinions, tests, and months of uncertainty, Prof. Dudai diagnosed me within two minutes and knew exactly what needed to be done. As someone who has experienced many sports injuries, surgeries, and met numerous doctors, I was highly impressed by Prof. Dudai's professionalism, both before and after the surgery. I underwent laparoscopic surgery to repair both groins and the navel, and within just a few days, I had fully recovered. A week after the surgery, I was already back in Belgium and started training."
The Endoscopic Surgery
The laparoscopic and endoscopic techniques have ushered in a new era in surgery, transforming the procedure into a far less traumatic event for both the patient and their family compared to traditional surgery. The endoscopic approach to Hernias even took the advantages and results of the surgeries much further.
The outcomes of Endoscopic surgical methods are also significantly better.
In Hernia cases, patients are discharged as early as the day after surgery and can return to their normal activities within just a few days.
Over the years, laparoscopic techniques have been adapted to nearly all types of surgeries, while endoscopic methods are now used for all types of Hernias.
These Endoscopic Hernia repairs have demonstrated clear advantages over open surgery—provided the procedure is performed skillfully by a highly experienced specialist in the field.

-
