"Dr. Jacobs went above and beyond for my hip replacement! She answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. She is awesome and I highly recommend!!"
— WebMD Care"He was the rudest doctor I have ever been to. He could care less about your symptoms, he is too busy talking down to his patients. He caused as much pain as he possibly could during my visit."
