In 1932, Shabad toured to Palestine with Dr. Abel Lapin from Kaunas. During his trip, Shabad hosted by the Health Committee of the Knesset and the Jerusalem Medical Association.[2]

He was one of the originators of the volkist movement, which eventually turned into the Folkspartei (Jewish People's Party).[3]

In the late 1930s a monument on the outskirts of Vilnius was erected in Shabad's honor;[4] it was destroyed during WWII. In 2007 he was honoured with another monument in Vilnius, reflecting the fact that he was the prototype of "Doctor Aybolit", a good doctor from a children's poem by Korney Chukovsky.[1]
