The government’s legal adviser approves the appointment of Prof. Zeev Rotstein to head the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem.

Rotstein is currently director of the Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer.

His nomination was delayed after the Civil Service Commissioner complained that as head of Tel Hashomer, Rotstein allowed senior physicians to conduct private surgeries in the morning hours.

According to Ynet, the approval of Rotstein’s appointment is a victory for Deputy Health Minister Yaakov Litzman, who supported his nomination.
