''Caring, professional, speaks at eye level, consults when needed and we felt there was someone to rely on. He also gave me his personal number in case of need and was available to answer and advise. Highly recommended.

''I came to the doctor privately and paid for it. However, to my regret, I waited for the doctor for an hour!! I think that if a person pays privately, they should be seen on time or at least within a reasonable waiting time. The doctor's consultation was perfectly fine, he recommended surgery and promised that the secretary would contact me soon. After the consultation, the secretary did not get back to me. After two days, I tried to reach the secretary's office and when I finally succeeded, I was told that there were no operating rooms available due to the war, even though I was in a very difficult situation. Unfortunately, only after about two weeks they offered me surgery at very short notice, something I was not prepared for and I declined. In any case, the service experience was disappointing, especially given the fact that private care is supposed to be more pleasant.

      ''I would like to express my deep gratitude and appreciation to Dr. Malka Yaakov who treated and operated on me. Throughout the entire process – from the first meeting, through the preparation period for surgery, and until the recovery afterwards – I received personal, professional, and exceptionally sensitive treatment. Dr. Malka demonstrated complete availability, exceptional patience, and was attentive to every question or concern I raised. I felt that I had someone to rely on, and that my treatment was conducted with genuine commitment to my health and well-being. The combination of uncompromising professionalism with human and caring treatment is praiseworthy. I have no doubt that Dr. Malka embodies the most important values in medicine, and I thank him wholeheartedly. With regards, Yifat 30.09.2025

      ''Wow, what a doctor! Professional at the highest level, he performed surgery on me after my appendix burst in my abdomen. I arrived at the hospital in very poor condition. Dr. Yaakov Jonathan Malka operated on me in the most professional manner, and the surgery, which was complex and not simple, went smoothly and successfully. Beyond Dr. Malka's professionalism, I received treatment and explanations with patience and a pleasant demeanor. I warmly recommend this professional person with a huge heart!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you

      ''Doctor Malka was recommended to me by my general practitioner. I was very satisfied with the pre-operative advice. Thanks to God, the operation went well as did the post-operative follow-up. Thank you again.

      ''I had the privilege of undergoing surgery with Dr. Malka, and I would like to express my deep gratitude for the exceptional care I received from him throughout the entire journey. From the first meeting, I felt that I was in good hands. Dr. Malka explains each stage clearly, without complicated medical terms, which allowed me to understand what was going to happen and feel much more calm and confident. What particularly impressed me was his human presence – he is not only an excellent surgeon, but also a truly empathetic doctor. He listens, looks at eye level, and genuinely cares about what the patient feels – and that changes everything. He was very available and attentive to every question or concern, even after the surgery. He did not hesitate to answer even at late hours or to call on his own initiative to check that everything was fine – something very reassuring in such sensitive moments. Thank you very much Dr. Malka

      ''A doctor with experience and practice, in my opinion. Because I have undergone several surgeries, I am interested in the background and want to ensure that the treatment will be appropriate. He also requested a CT scan. Since my health insurance did not approve the examination at Har Hatzofim, I stopped the treatment because I am not willing to have the examination at the Mar Institute.
