    I love Dr. Jacobs. He did inform me he was leaving the practice in Feb. He told me I should have gotten a notice in My Chart from his staff letting me know of the change. However, I did not. I am disappointed the staff didn't send me the letter and I was blindsided by the information. I am truly devastated he is leaving bc I will miss Dr. Jacobs and appreciate all that he has done for me over the years. Not sure if there is another Dr that I will be able to trust as much as him.

    I would 200 out of ten recommend Dr. Jacobs to anyone needing his care. He is so thorough and caring with his patients. They don't make doctors like Dr. Jacobs anymore. He is hands down the best provider I've ever known.
