''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. Hativ accompanied me from the discovery of the disease along the very difficult path to the surgery (full excision and reconstruction) with such professionalism, sensitivity and care and of course - a perfect result. Although I was treated in the public system - Ichilov, but everything that concerns Dr. Hativ had the feeling of private medicine - at any hour When I had a question, Dr. Khativ answered me with a calmness and patience that are truly incomprehensible.

''I would like to highly recommend Dr. Marian Khatib,
For being a dedicated, high-quality, professional, attentive and most importantly humane doctor who takes care of the patient in a personal way with kindness and patience.
I am the daughter of a senior doctor who lives in the north, I came all the way to her in the center of the country and I am thankful for that every day.
Dr. Khativ was a ray of light in a dark time I was going through.
The Ichilov Medical Center won, which has a doctor like Dr. Khativ.

''From the first moment we met Dr. Khativ, I knew I was in the best hands.
With professionalism, dedication, endless patience and humanity, and most importantly calm, she explained all the steps to me, operated on me in a private lemphatomy operation (in Raphael) that was a great success and with an ease that really surprised me, with no pain at all and a recovery of two days, and with 2 scars that are not visible at all.
I recommend her more! She is truly something special.

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.
