The Israel Spine Society (ISS) is the professional organisation of most of the practicing spine surgeons in Israel, orthopaedic surgeons and neurosurgeons have embraced it as their professional home providing an atmosphere of learning and camaraderie. 

The ISS was founded in 2000 by a group of veteran spine surgeons together with young surgeons who were at the beginning of their professional career, and did not find that the Israeli Orthopaedic Association or the Neurosurgical Association answered their specific professional and educational needs.
