Sarah Drew and Keith McKidd, stars of Grey’s Anatomy, Lucas Neff of Raising Hope, and Travis Milne of Rookie Blue, today toured the operating rooms and Shock Trauma Center of the Hadassah University Medical Center in Jerusalem where Prof. Avi Rivkind, Head of Surgery and Shock Trauma, and Prof. Ofer Gofrit, Senior Urologist and Robotic Surgeon, briefed on the finer points of their specialties. The actors explained that although they receive instruction on medical procedures before taping each show, they appreciate hearing from actual experts.
Their week-long visit was sponsored by America’s Voices in Israel, an organization dedicated to providing broadcasters, commentators, journalists and media personalities with a firsthand experience of Israel.
