''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.

      ''Good evening, Dr. Malka saved my life - literally! I went into emergency surgery and saw Dr. Malka a minute before the operation. From the explanation I received, I understood that I had someone to rely on. After I regained consciousness, Dr. Malka did not leave me. Both on the medical level: I felt that I was going through the process of returning to life very safely in the most professional way I could wish for myself. Dr. Malka visited me several times a day. Each time with news of progress, with a cheerful demeanor and an attitude that made me feel that my recovery process was the most important thing to him in the world. My family members also received similar treatment and got answers to every question, even if it was very difficult. Thank you, Creator of the world, for sending me my savior - Dr. Malka!!!

      ''Surgeon Yaacov Malka removed my gallbladder because there was a strong suspicion of cancer. Despite the heavy emotional burden this could have represented for me, thanks to his explanations, involvement, availability, and professionalism, I felt confident and without fear. The operation went very well, and he did his utmost to obtain the biopsy results as quickly as possible, which, thank God, were negative. I recommend him without hesitation. He is an excellent professional and exceptionally humane.
