''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. Hatib is a physician from another world, an exceptionally skilled surgeon, and a wonderful person. She operated on me twice, and not only are there almost no scars, but she instilled in me absolute confidence in the success of the surgery and treatment. In both cases, I had no concerns whatsoever.

''Dr. Khatib performed my surgery, a complex procedure involving a full mastectomy and bilateral reconstruction. Both were done in the same operation. Dr. Khatib was the sole surgeon and was responsible for all aspects of the surgery, including the plastic reconstruction. The surgery proceeded without complications and with excellent results, and Dr. Khatib was available for me throughout the recovery process. I came to Dr. Khatib after several meetings with various surgeons and plastic surgeons. She was the only one who gave me confidence and reassured me. Beyond her professionalism and dedication, her personal and caring approach, the surgical results are also beautiful and aesthetic. Highly recommended! Without her, I would not have survived the tumultuous period from discovery to recovery from surgery.

''From the first moment I arrived for consultation, I knew I was in the best hands. Dr. Hatib is simply wonderful, humane, explains at eye level, professional. I knew I had come to the best, and this was even before she operated on me. She performed a partial breast removal, lift, and reduction surgery on me. Her approach, sensitivity towards me as a patient, her talent as an oncoplastic surgeon, and the perfect result indicate that there is no better choice than her.

''I went to Dr. Khatib for another consultation, which surprised me very much. Dr. Khatib explained to me clearly about the most precise treatment option for me and saved me from a less appropriate process. I highly recommend going to Dr. Khatib because of the initial diagnosis, which is the most important, the professionalism, and the golden hands that operated on me perfectly. There is no doubt that it was very reassuring to know that I am in good hands and that someone is taking care of me. This is a very important feeling during the process of dealing with the illness, and for that, thank you very much.

''Doctor Khativ, nicknamed "gold hands", is not only gold hands but also a golden heart. I came to her after visiting a number of leading surgeons in the field and she was the first and only one who actually saw me and not just examined me. I sat with her in the clinic for about 45 minutes, scared and frightened like I had never been in my life, and she is gentle, calm, endless patience and truly impressive professionalism, explained slowly, drew, checked, and answered every question several times until I understood. She gave me her contact information and was especially available for any question, problem. She navigated my process with confidence and endless professionalism and uncompromising thoroughness. The result is amazing, it's unbelievable what the circumstances were and what result she got - gold in every sense of the word, she is the only oncoplasty in Israel! Words are too short to explain how much I appreciate, thank and cherish her and the breast center she manages in Ichilov and I will surely remember her forever.

''I would like to thank and praise Dr. Hativ for the dedicated, professional treatment and the accompaniment throughout. Her recommendations for the surgery were precise and detailed in addition to her constant response to all consultations including the breast health team. Finding yourself at the age of 39 + 2 small children with breast cancer is difficult to say the least and beyond the support circle I always felt that I was in the best medical hands and indeed so, so once again many thanks for everything.
