Amara Malik, MD

Dr. Malik performed 3 surgeries on my including my double mastectomy for breast cancer. She’s AMAZING!
She’s caring, responsive, tender and understanding. 2 rounds of breast cancer was aweful. She made it bearable.
Thank you Dr. Malik!!!

Dr. Malik was the first doctor I talked with the day I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I feel so lucky that she was the surgeon who happened to have an appointment opening that day because she did everything right for me. She provided me and my family (my husband, sister, and niece were all with me) with a thorough explanation of what my diagnosis meant and what steps would need to be taken next. She listened to my concerns, never treated my questions lightly, and explained everything in a way that we could understand. Her demeanor is very calming and I’m pretty sure she even got us to laugh a few times, between the tears. When I asked if my husband and I could still go on a big trip to Scotland we had been planning for 6 months– for which we were scheduled to leave 2 days after I was diagnosed with cancer– she said yes, that she loves it when patients continue living their lives and don’t allow cancer to take over everything (although, responsibly, she convinced us to shorten our trip by a week so I could start going to very necessary appointments). She was very available any time I needed her input. And my surgery went very well– I recovered way more quickly than I thought I would. I’m so grateful that I was in Dr. Malik’s skilled hands and would highly recommend her to anyone facing a breast cancer diagnosis.

This doctor makes you feel like everything is ok

Dr. Malik, helped me in the worst time of my life dealing with being recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She was truly remarkable in holding my hand through the process and also being an incredible surgeon, I have a tiny scar from my lumpectomy. I can’t say enough good things about this Doctor — she is a shining example of what medicine and bed side manners should be about!

I met with Dr. Malik and found her to be professional, compassionate, and had a way to make light of a very serious situation. I haven’t gone to her for services yet, but I feel very comfortable with her.

Dr. Malik seems quite knowledgeable, caring and thoughtful. All of the qualities anyone would want in a medical professional when dealing with their illness. She took her time and answered all questions thoroughly. I was most impressed.
