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.

ONE IN A MILLION
Dr. Jacobson has been my doctor for 39 years. The care I have received over these years has been phenomenal. I could not be more thankful for his commitment to my family and me.

Exceptional Care
Was having severe abdominal pain. He is not my PCP but was on duty the day I called in. He got me in within a couple hours of my call. He spent sufficient time with me. Listened and asked good questions. Was very caring and personable. He got the necessary tests ordered immediately and within 5 hrs of seeing him, we had lab and CT results and a clear diagnosis. He called me again the next day to check on me and had me set up with a great surgeon within a couple of days. It was the best medical care I have experienced.

I don’t know who wrote the bad review but I suspect he is not really a patient. Notice he did not leave his first name. Dr. Jacobson is an exceptional doctor. My husband and I are proud to have him as our doctor. We have NEVER seen such behaviors as described by the reviewer. Just the opposite! A great doctor with all the characteristics of a superior person. Dana of Eugene, in August 2019.

Been his patient since 1977. Always been a good listener. Sensitive to my rare health condition.. Is extremely busy but gives full attention if something is critical. Respects my emotional needs. Doesn't hesitate to refer when necessary. Make appointments early in day. Later has more wait time because he does give needed attention. Gentle patience. None of the non-objective ad hominem accusations from one critic here are true. Last I heard he can't take any new patients at this time.

Poor care. Does not care about patients. Has a known habit of telling racist and sexist jokes to patients, reps, nurses, etc. If you are a physician or a member of a physician's family you can expect to get preferential treatment but if you are the average person be prepared to wait months for an appointment.
