What I Learned From Making My Own Underground Map

July 17, 2018 By Aviva Yoselis Leave a Comment

I always have many promotional emails that pop up in my inbox, and I usually delete them at the end of the week, but this week one caught my eye. Chen of Cadensee, Let’s Talk Medical, a sciences communications company, doesn’t usually disappoint, and last week’s blog was especially relevant since it involved the London […]

Ask Aviva #23: Why is the allergist referring me to a pulmonologist?

July 17, 2018 By Aviva Yoselis Leave a Comment

Dear Aviva, I’m allergic to mold and pollen and dogs. I get asthma and sometimes it’s hard to breathe so my allergist back in the U.S. just prescribed me an inhaler. But when I went to the allergist here, she told me I needed to go to a “rofe rayot”. What’s that and why do […]

Navigating Mental Health in the Elderly [Mental Health Awareness Series #3]

May 22, 2018 By Aviva Yoselis 1 Comment

Apparently, doctoring octogenarians is pretty unpopular in the medical community. That means that there are very few medical experts in the field who specialize in the unique healthcare of those over 70. How do I know this? In addition to spending my free time reading medical literature, I happen to be coordinating a study for […]

Ask Aviva #17: Why didn’t the doctor tell me how to get the medicine?!

April 18, 2018 By Aviva Yoselis Leave a Comment

Dear Aviva, My daughter is 9 years old and takes a special medication for her bipolar disorder. The psychiatrist recommended this medication and even checked that it was distributed in Israel. But when I went to the pharmacy with the prescription, they told me that they couldn’t sell it to me because I didn’t have […]

The Jello-Like Nature of Healthcare Navigation in Israel

January 30, 2018 By Aviva Yoselis 1 Comment

The other day I reached the front of the line of my kupah’s pharmacy and met with a huge shock.  Apparently, my new, digitally signed, prescriptions had been automatically forwarded to the pharmacy computer and I could pick up the next two months’ worth of my medication, without even bringing in the prescription! (The little […]

Ask Aviva #11: Can I buy my prescription at Superpharm?

November 20, 2017 By Aviva Yoselis Leave a Comment

Dear Aviva, I brought my prescription the other day to Superpharm, only to have them tell me that it would cost me 150 shekels! They told me if I bought it at the kupah pharmacy, it would only be 16 shekels. What’s going on? Can I ever buy my prescriptions at Superpharm? Sincerely, Fuming in […]
