About the Provider

Brittany W. Jacob, MD, is a family medicine physician with Emory at Flat Shoals Primary Care. She sees people 12 years of age and older and offers diagnosis and treatment of all types of medical conditions, as well as guidance on disease prevention, health promotion and health maintenance.

Dr. Jacob has clinical interests in gynecologic and gender-affirming care. She is also certified by the American Academy of HIV Medicine. As an HIV expert, she provides people who have the virus with both primary and specialized health care. Obtaining all the care they need in a “one-stop shop” allows many people with HIV to avoid the stigmatizing feelings that can sometimes occur when seeking care at an HIV specialty clinic.

Having grown up in Georgia, Dr. Jacob attended medical school at Emory University School of Medicine. There, she recognized the need for HIV and reproductive health care in the Atlanta area. Being present for people who often feel alone and vulnerable is particularly meaningful for Dr. Jacob. But being there to celebrate major life events—whether that involves seeing someone achieve sobriety or lower their viral load to zero—is equally satisfying. She prioritizes developing strong relationships with her patients and creating a partnership where she can share her knowledge to help them meet their health goals.

Outside of work, Dr. Jacob enjoys painting, a hobby she took up during her medical residency. She also likes to do yoga, garden and cook. She is happy to live in the area with her husband and be near other family members.

Interpretive Services

To provide the highest quality of care, interpreter services may be utilized to ensure proper communication of medical information for deaf, hard-of-hearing, and non-English speaking patients or family members.
