Frequently asked questions

An advanced biologic treatment from your own blood that can support healing of tendons and cartilage — used for selected knee problems and sports injuries.

It depends on the injury and procedure; most people follow a structured rehab plan and return to daily activities gradually over weeks to months, based on examination findings and progress.

Yes. Care includes sports-medicine assessment and rehab plans matched to your activity level.

The clinic is in Bnei Re’em (near Gedera and the Shfela). Patients come from Israel’s south and center, including Beer Sheva. When surgery is needed, care may be coordinated through partner hospitals in Tel Aviv and Beer Sheva, depending on the clinical plan.

Yes. The clinic offers Hebrew and English so you can clearly understand the assessment, options, and next steps.

Bring recent imaging if available (MRI, X-ray, ultrasound), visit summaries or referral letters, and an up-to-date medication list. If you do not have imaging yet, next steps are decided after the clinical examination.

There is a clinic arrangement with Leumit. For other health funds and for supplementary insurance, verify eligibility, coverage, and reimbursement directly with your insurer or payer, according to your policy and current rules.

Seek evaluation if pain or swelling persists beyond a few days, you notice instability or locking in the knee or shoulder, range of motion drops after an injury, or night pain continues. For high fever, rapidly spreading redness, or rapidly progressive weakness, go to the emergency department.

Both are blood-based biologic approaches, but preparation and clinical goals differ. The choice depends on diagnosis, age, tissue involved, and evidence-informed judgment after examination and discussion of benefits and limits.

You can reach the clinic by phone, WhatsApp, or the contact form on this site. The team responds as soon as possible to arrange an appointment.

There is no single timeline for everyone. Recovery depends on the injury, the procedure performed, age, pre-injury fitness, and adherence to physiotherapy. Your visit should include a realistic phased plan for return to activity.

Yes. Imaging and reports are very helpful, but decisions should also reflect clinical examination, history, and day-to-day function — so please bring what you have, and still plan for a focused visit.

In Dr. Moskovich’s practice, the decision depends on how symptoms match the bedside exam and imaging, and on your goals (work, sport, daily function). When function is relatively preserved and surgery’s risk–benefit is unfavorable, care starts with structured conservative options; when there is a clear mechanical problem or instability that puts you at risk, arthroscopy may be considered after a precise discussion of expectations and recovery.

Dr. Moskovich selects based on tissue type, symptom duration, age, activity level, and prior treatments — not trends. In clinic, you should receive a plain-language explanation of what each option may offer in your situation, its limits, and what to expect in the first weeks after an injection.

Dr. Moskovich recommends bringing high-quality MRI/CT files (not only a one-line report), visit summaries, and a medication list. The goal is to align imaging with the physical exam — so you can decide whether surgery is truly needed now, or whether a conservative pathway is more appropriate.

MRI is sensitive and sometimes shows findings that do not match what you experience day to day. In Dr. Moskovich’s view, the clinical exam is what explains whether a finding is truly driving the problem — and that is essential for responsible decision-making.
