The KMC is one of the largest hospitals in the network of Clalit. Chaired by Prof. Abramowicz, AFKMC, the current Board of Direc
tors, Haya Ascher-Svanum, Prof. Steven L. Warsof, Prof. Peter A. Gottlieb, Annie Abramowicz and Prof. Joachim Yahalom, composed of some of very prominent U.S. physicians, scientists and lay leaders, is actively seeking to enlarge its ranks and to garner an ever-growing support of the KMC nationwide.
