It is the honorific for a pharmacist with an M.Sc. degreee, not usually translated
This - like עו"ד such-and-such - is one of the honorifics Israeli Hebrew retains from its European origins.
The title before the name means "magister" and indicates studies at an M.Sc. level.
If you feel a strong need to reflect the honorific, consider using letters after the name in English.
The reference links: the first is to a description of the honorific, the second, to the educational levels described by a reputable school of pharmaceutical sciences.
