''I STRONGLY recommend Dr. Malka, who operated on me last week. Whether during consultations, follow-up care, or the surgical procedure itself, he is extremely professional and truly effective. Very compassionate, he proved to be reassuring and attentive. During my hospitalization in particular, despite his busy schedule, I was able to observe that he dedicated time to each of the patients in the room with seriousness and kindness. Thank you, Doctor Malka!

''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.

      ''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.

      ''Dr. Jacob Malka is very attentive and professional. After I discovered a growth, he was in constant contact with me. He answered all questions. In the near future, he performed a complex hip surgery. He monitored every stage of my recovery, all the tests, and after 6 days I returned home feeling good. I am very grateful for his hard work. I wish everyone who needs a doctor of such high caliber!

      ''A true doctor - an excellent physician and outstanding surgeon. Provided personal attention, explanations, and follow-up. I can write to him at any hour and receive a response. He treated my elderly mother who praises him immensely. The surgery was successful and went smoothly. A major operation with only 3-4 days of hospitalization for an 85-year-old woman. It's a privilege to be a patient of Dr. Malka.
