Dr. Eitan Wertheim, director of Beilinson and Hasharon Hospitals: "We express our deep shock at the incident of violence that took place today at the entrance to the hospital against the security guard. 

Last month it was reported that in Be'er Ya'akov a patient was attacked by a doctor with an iron bar.

The suspect, in his thirties, came to the HMO to receive medical treatment.

A few minutes later he began to rage, grabbed an iron bar and used it to hit the doctor on the head.

The doctor was slightly injured and was evacuated to Sheba Medical Center.

Also in May, a pepper gas doctor was attacked at the psychiatric hospital in Be'er Sheva.
