''I cannot thank Dr. Marian enough for the care, support, and professionalism I received throughout my journey. From the very first consultation, I felt truly seen, heard, and reassured. My doctor took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.
What really stood out to me was not only the medical expertise, but also the kindness and compassion shown during such a difficult time. It made a huge difference in my experience and gave me so much confidence and peace of mind.
I am incredibly grateful to be under such dedicated care and would wholeheartedly recommend my doctor to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about their patients.

''Dr. Khatib Marian is an angelic, thorough and professional doctor with a golden hand, attentive to the patient's desires and instills in her a sense of complete security. I came to her after I was scheduled for a complete mastectomy, including a nipple and crown. Dr. Khatib was not satisfied with reading previous testimonials, but asked to receive the discs of the tests I had already done, and even sent me for further tests, all in rare collaboration with the radiologist Dr. Orit Golan, whom she defined as "having a good eye."
After a thorough process of checking all the data, I underwent breast guard surgery and symmetry, and the result is perfect.
Blessed is Ichilov Hospital, these are his doctors!

''Dr. Khatib is a very professional and thorough doctor, humane, attentive to the patient, answers all questions patiently and pleasantly and dispels the concerns. Speaks at eye level. She felt I was hesitant and checked again if there was another solution. For any question. I underwent oncoplastic surgery and the results of the surgery speak for themselves. I highly recommend to anyone looking for an oncoplastic surgeon (surgery and plastic surgery). Dr. Khatib is an asset in the field and whoever is treated by her wins !!!

''This is a pleasant doctor, who explains with great patience and professionalism the various stages that go through before the operation. Dr. Khatib listened to my questions and answered them all and also wrote down before her and implemented my specific requests regarding the surgery and I felt that she respected them.
The surgery itself was successful and the scars that remained delicate are not to say beautiful (everything is relative).
There are many excellent doctors with professional hands, so the importance of what is beyond, personality and humanity is very great. I highly recommend Dr. Khatib

''There are not enough words to thank Dr. Khatib for her dedicated, attentive professional care and her human and personal attitude. The entire oncology staff that treats me at the hospital is excellent. I am a veteran in the paths of life and Dr. Khatib is among the most professional and attentive I have met in my 74 years of life. I was very happy to give an opinion on such a special doctor.

''Dr. Khatib is a doctor who meets once in a generation !!! A higher power brought me to her and saved me from a sentence of complete amputation. From the beginning I reached her was very empathetic and attentive to me. She sees the person behind the disease and manages to connect to his needs (an ability that other doctors lose along the way, during their work). She was right at the beginning to strive for me to meet my desires. (This was so significant in the process I went through as having a multifocal breast disease that was borderline in terms of the possibility of breast preservation.) To that end, she put a lot of time and effort into making the complex oncoplastic surgery successful. And ending with the invested surgery and the amazing result !!!! In conclusion, a first-rate professional surgeon, caring and dedicated.

''An exceptionally professional and humane doctor.
Works with discretion, calmly, and with endless patience and humanity.
Despite all the difficulties, Marian worked tirelessly to understand my needs and tailor the right solution for me.
A doctor who is not expected to meet and more in the public health system.
No words. Highly recommend.
