Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I've been seeing Dr. Jacobs and his team for a few months now. The amount of kindness, compassion, and knowledge is something I'm grateful for in every single visit and follow ups. I can't thank the entire staff enough for all of their efforts in making some tough health situations brighter.

Professional
My first visit was before surgery and Dr Jacobs was professional and respectful while telling me 'the worst case scenario'. The next visit was after surgery where he gave me good news. Both visits he was patient and answered all my questions.

Highly recommend Dr. Jacobs
After being diagnosed with Lymphoma, my first visit was with Dr. Jacob’s. He took the time to explain the disease and discussed possible treatments. He asked both my husband and me several times if we had any questions and he answered those questions. We left the appointment feeling more optimistic than when we went in.
