Rambam Medical Center has garnered recognition as the largest medical facility in northern Israel, boasting a rich history intertwined with the growth and development of Israel's healthcare landscape.

Annually, Rambam Health Care Campus extends its services to a significant number of individuals, admitting approximately 75,000 patients within its walls while attending to an additional 500,000 individuals through its outpatient clinics and medical institutes.
