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.

A great doctor. He always talks to you and listens
How kind and really listens to you.

My husband and I have been a patient of Dr. Jacobson’s for years and so appreciate his expertise always accompanied by caring and willingness to take the time to answer my questions. We are happy for him and his family in retirement but hate to lose him as our trusted doctor.
