Many personalities in the Zionist Movement were themselves doctors who laid the foundation for modern medical practice in Israel. Israel's medical community has successfully met the challenge of problems presented by a heterogenous population. Israel has achieved high standards in medical treatment, development and application of advanced medical technology, and research. Up-to-date methods attract patients from many countries for treatment. In recent years, improvements have been made in preventive medicine, geriatric medicine and health care in the Arab sector.
