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.

Thanks Pedro!

Dr. Jakos is by far the best pediatrician I’ve had for my children. He never rushes you and makes sure all your questions are answered. He personally calls you with any results big or small and also calls you himself when you have any questions about your child. If I could give him 10 stars I most certainly would. I highly recommend him as your child’s pediatrician.

I've been under the care of Dr. Jakos for nearly 12 years, and he has consistently provided the highest quality of care of any other doctor I have seen during that time. He is the best pediatrician in the Palm Beach area, hands down.

Dr. Jakos has been following my 9 and 10 yr olds since infancy and now our 4 month old. We love his gentle nature, conservative approach to medicine, and willingness to listen. Our 9 yr old has Down syndrome and Dr. Jakos has always been on top of making sure we got connected with all the right specialists and therapists. He also makes you feel you are doing a great job as a parent when you feel you are drowning. I appreciate his personalized touches especially in such a large and busy practice.

Dr. Jakos is probably the best doctor I’ve ever met. He’s super knowledgeable, welcoming, friendly, genuine, patient and so gentle. My 3yo absolutely loved him and he was wonderful with my newborn. He answered every question I had and gave me priceless knowledge as well. He took time with my children and did so with a smile! My family and I are moving up north or else I would never take my children to, or trust any other pediatrician but him again. I’d give him more stars if possible!!!
