Mission Description:
A medical referral and hospitality liaison service, Rofeh International operates under the auspices of the Grand Rabbi of Boston, Rabbi Levi Y. Horowitz shlit’a. After initial contact with patients, whether local or international, Rofeh refers them to medical experts both in the Boston area and often further afield. Through information provided by the patients, Rofeh obtains evaluations and recommendations from leading medical experts.
With a permanent staff, complimented by volunteer groups, Rofeh provides a support system for patients and their families, particularly those from abroad. Over 25% of the people who contact us, actually travel to Boston for consultation, treatment, or surgery; we provide these individuals with a full gamut of services based on individual needs.
In Boston: Rofeh is located within the Bostoner Rebbe's community and enjoys the religious facilities of an Orthodox community and his counsel. |
In Israel: Located in Har-Nof, Jerusalem, Rofeh’s Israel office initiates contact with patients and provides them with preliminary information about Rofeh’s operations and potential aid. |
