When I have a great experience, I make sure to pass on a good word on that doctor or business. The office is beautiful and the waiting time was very minimal from the time of filling out forms to going into the room to be seen. Dr. Jacobs's bedside manners are wonderful, in contrast to many other doctors I had gone to. I did not feel rushed by the doctor and he took his time to listen to me and to ...

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
I went to Dr. Jacobs after seeing the Angie's List reviews. I had a terrible migraine that was not being helped with any of the over the counter/ prescription drugs I was prescribed to take. I decided I had enough of all these pills that were not working and see someone who took a more holistic approach to medicine. Dr. Jacobs was kind, compassionate and  attentive to my issue and addressed it with respect and validation.

The provider examined my left foot and recommended additional physical therapy. I had already spent over $1,000.  I got a second opinion from a Podiatrist at the Glendale Urgent Clinic by my house.  It turned out my problem was not Plantar Faciitis  but a pinched nerve that took 2 minutes to diagnose, and 5 minutes to treat. Pain was gone. No problems. The other issue was the billing.  The doctor'...

Dr Jacobs is great. For my first visit he sat with me for a couple hours and let me talk about everything that I had going on health-wise. I never felt rushed or dismissed. I felt like he would have sat there with me all day if I had wanted. He took everything I said to heart, and offered easy solutions.? One of my biggest peeves with doctors is when they believe tests over your reported symptoms....

I've been seeing Dr. Jacobs for over a year now after reading reviews on Angle's list.  The staff is great and Dr. Jacobs has been on point when administering any medications or analysis of illnesses.  He has been monitoring my overall health, vitals, blood levels and gives good advice on how to live a healthier lifestyle.  I would recommend him to anyone looking for a general physician.

Doctor Jacobs saved my life. ?Two hours after my first consultation his office called me and told me to go to the emergency room. ?It turns out that my Iron count was extremely low and causing my weakness and body pains. ?I am on the way to recovery and feeling better each day. ?The doctors in the emergency room told me that the critically low iron count that I had could have caused me to at the m...

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
I was looking for a doctor who would help me figure out why I have back pain and who could become my primary doctor.  I had not had a doctor ever nor did I ever do any regular checkups.  I am just about to turn 40 years old so I thought it would be time to start visiting a primary care doctor. I wanted to find someone who would take holistic approaches and help me find the root of my health concerns.
