Specialisation, education and clinical experience
Professor Meir Shalit is an allergist-immunologist at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital, head of the department. His main areas of medical activity relate to allergology, immunology, and drug allergies.
Allergy is a very common comorbid condition. It can manifest at any moment, and only a highly qualified specialist will correctly determine the moment of its appearance. By the method of exclusion, they will attempt to identify the cause. To confirm their assumptions, they will conduct the necessary tests and prescribe the correct treatment. The complexity of its identification lies in the fact that there may be several allergens, and it will be necessary to determine whether the allergic reaction occurs in the presence of all components or if it is provoked by a single element in this complex.
He received his medical education in Jerusalem. After serving in the army, he underwent training in the residency program at Hadassah Hospital. He specialized in immunology and allergology at a university hospital in the United States of America.
He has practiced medicine in clinics in the United States of America and Israel. Professor Meir Shalit teaches at the Hebrew University in the Faculty of Medicine. He actively participates in scientific conferences and public medical organizations. He has been recognized multiple times at medical forums.
His scientific medical work is dedicated to researching the emergence of allergic reactions in the body to medications and rubber products. Establishing the cause of the disease will help implement correct and timely preventive measures, which will lead to a reduction in the number of possible allergens that adversely affect human health.
