On June 14, 2026, hundreds of medical professionals gathered at a hotel in New Jersey for the largest MedEx event to date. The event, organized by Nefesh B'Nefesh and Israel's Ministry of Health, aimed to recruit doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers to relocate to Israel.
Attendees spent the day learning about job opportunities, licensing processes, and life in Israel. Many expressed motivations ranging from professional growth to ideological connections with the Jewish state.
The event featured workshops and one-on-one consultations, reflecting a growing trend of medical professionals considering aliyah. Organizers reported record attendance, though specific numbers were not immediately available.
