''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.

''I would like to warmly recommend Dr. Marian Khativ, an onco-plastic breast surgeon, who accompanied me on my medical journey following breast malignancies. Dr. Khativ performed onco-plastic surgery for me that included excision, reconstruction and adjustment of the other side, and all this with extraordinary professionalism, sensitivity and endless patience. She knew how to combine the precise and innovative medical treatment with an empathetic, sensitive, eye-level and respectful approach. This combination was extremely significant and contributed to the maintenance of my mind and mental health during this shocking process, which is not taken for granted.
Dr. Khativ works with modern technologies and consults with a multidisciplinary team, which left a significant gap in the surgical-therapeutic approach between her and other consultations I received. Beyond the complex surgery, Dr. Khativ continues to follow me with dedication, sensitivity and professionalism, always with high availability and an excellent and respectful human attitude at eye level. I continue to follow up with her and travel especially to the center of the country to continue to be treated by her, and it is worth every moment. I also chose to do the surgery at the center, despite the distance, thanks to the complete trust I have in Dr. Khativ.
I thank Dr. Khativ for everything she has done for me and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who is in a similar situation.

''Dr. Hativ is a professional, very talented, precise, humane and caring surgeon. I underwent excision surgery and bilateral reconstruction with silicone and from the first moment I had the feeling that I was in good hands. Dr. Hativ explained everything and prepared me for the surgery in a clear way and gave me confidence. The surgery was successful, without complications and the result is very beautiful. Even after the surgery, in all the reviews the conduct is pleasant with a lot of patience. I thank Dr. Hativ from the bottom of my heart and recommend her
Warmly as a rare professional woman.

''Dr. Hativ, she is a gift from heaven. Professional, pleasant, available, and her surgeries are beautiful, the scars are invisible, and I have seen quite a few scars of patients operated on by other surgeons. If you have medical insurance that covers surgeries, there is nothing to think twice about. Praise from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Marian

''I came to Dr. for a (fourth) opinion very confused and stressed, and I immediately felt that she was professional, understanding and sensitive. She gave a very clear and in-depth explanation, which immediately gave me certainty and security, and made a quick appointment for lymphectomy surgery and reconstruction and performed it superbly. The whole process was efficient and fast and much less painful and scary than I feared. Dr. Hativ was attentive, supportive and readily available the whole way and I felt comfortable asking her any question and I always received a professional, patient and pleasant answer. Highly recommend.

''Dr. Marian is a doctor with supreme grace who combines professionalism at the highest level alongside humanity, empathy, sensitivity and endless patience. I don't have enough words to describe my appreciation and appreciation for her.
I came to Dr. Marian after a mastectomy and reconstruction surgery, which unfortunately got complicated and I had to undergo another surgery. I was in a fragile situation, not easy at all and thanks to close, personal support and optimism throughout the process I was able to receive and draw from her a lot of strength and hope for the future, thanks to which I am in a good and calm place.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Oncoplastic Surgery differ from traditional breast cancer surgery?
Oncoplastic surgery combines tumor removal with immediate reconstruction in a single operation. This approach allows us to achieve the best possible aesthetic result while maintaining the same high standards of cancer treatment.
When can reconstructive surgery be performed after radiation or chemotherapy?
Timing depends on your individual treatment plan and healing progress. We typically recommend waiting 6-12 months after radiation therapy. We'll coordinate with your oncology team to determine the optimal timing.
What is the role of an Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon in my treatment?
Our role combines cancer surgery with plastic surgery techniques to remove breast cancer while maintaining your breast's natural appearance. We plan and perform operations that prioritize both your cancer treatment and cosmetic outcomes.
How will you ensure breast symmetry after surgery?
We use careful pre-operative planning and various surgical techniques to achieve symmetry. This may include adjusting the unaffected breast if needed. We'll monitor your results through regular follow-up appointments and can perform additional adjustments if necessary.
Am I a suitable candidate for Oncoplastic Breast Surgery?
Suitability depends on several factors including your cancer type and stage, breast size and shape, overall health, and personal preferences. We'll discuss all options during your consultation to determine the best approach for your situation.
What is the expected recovery time after surgery?
Most patients return to light activities within 2 weeks and fully recover within 4-6 weeks. However, recovery time varies depending on the procedure and individual healing factors. We'll provide detailed recovery guidelines based on your specific surgery.
Which breast procedures do you perform?
We offer a comprehensive range of procedures including breast-conserving surgery, oncoplastic reconstruction, mastectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy, symmetry procedures, and risk-reducing surgery. Each procedure is tailored to your specific needs.
