''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 was diagnosed with precancerous calcifications of wide amplitude.
Four doctors I consulted unanimously recommended complete excision and reconstruction.
For a year I tried to heal myself in natural ways that include: nutrition, supplements, physical activity and various alternative treatments.
I continued to be monitored throughout this period.
After a year, an ultrasound revealed a lump that, after a biopsy, proved to be cancerous.
The insurance agent with whom I am insured recommended me to see a doctor he knew about his home.
After the first minute I sat down in front of Dr. Khativ, I realized that I had found my doctor.
A doctor who was interested in me, in my story, in what was important to me and I felt that she was with me, that she would do anything for me.
Until I came to her, I was not at all aware of the fact that there was another option for me of a partial excision, a conservative surgery, exactly what I was looking for, a gentler and softer option for my body.
So that we can be sure that this is indeed a possible and realistic option for me, Dr. Khativ first started with the task of collecting all the data, turned every stone, checked every scrap of information that came from all the imaging, and did not give up until the last minute the option of surgery to preserve the breast and breast feeding.
All the way Dr. Hativ was available for me and accompanied me in setting the appointments and receiving the results.
Only after all the results have arrived and all the criteria have been met, is a date set for surgery.
Dr. Khativ did for me above and beyond what I could expect and ask for from a doctor of her status.
The surgery went smoothly, during the two days of hospitalization, Dr. Khativ came every evening to check on me.
After a few days I came to her to remove the drain and then for inspection and follow-up.
Happily, the results of the pathology also allowed me to keep the nipple and avoid its amputation.
I am grateful for the privilege of meeting and being operated on by Dr. Hativ.

''I was lucky enough to meet Dr. Khatib who offered me an innovative therapeutic approach, one that respects and preserves the woman's body. To my delight, I chose to trust Dr. Khatib, who was right in the clinical diagnosis and also in the decision to have a conservative operation. Dr. Khatib performed both the surgical part and the plastic part superbly, beautifully and without complications or pain. I've got no words. Thank you and recommend.

''I underwent surgery by Dr. Marian Khatib to perform oncoplastic breast preservation surgery and sentinel glands on the healing side (BH with pathology and clean margins) and adjustment of the healthy breast.
A doctor of supreme grace! Professional and courteous, if you are undecided she is the one!
I came to Dr. Khatib after we met with two surgeons who recommended a complete resection following extensive calcifications, Dr. Khatib gave another option of breast preservation in oncoplastic surgery after examining the findings, the deliberation between the surgeries was difficult and she was a full partner in our deliberations reflecting the risks in all One of the procedures and even met with us again.
I feel like I'm her only patient, was available for questions and hesitations, calmed down and gave a lot of confidence, checked what was with me and how I feel in hospital after surgery.
I am very pleased with the aesthetic result which is just a bonus to me being clean.
Thank you Dr. Khatib for everything!

''A month and a half ago I discovered I had breast cancer at the age of 32, I felt lost and immediately started on my journey to recovery.
I came to Dr. Khatib after some recommendations and after some opinions, and the first second I sat down in front of her I knew I would choose her to go on this journey with me.
A combination of service, professionalism and humanity. Explained in great detail what process I would go through and was attentive to any question.
After the meeting, within a few days we had already scheduled an operation, and at the same time we corresponded and also helped me with all the bureaucracy in front of the insurance company.
Today I am a few days later, feeling good and there is no joy from me that she is with me in this thing. It is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Dr. Khatib is a combination of a golden hand and a golden heart and everyone who can help her will win.
