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.

Wouldn't use again
May be a good technician, but has the bedside manner of a rhinoceros. He wanted to cut me open and fuse 5 vertebrae, but I just didn't have a good feeling about it. And the more I learned about the procedure, the less I liked it. It would have been something I would have expected coming out of the Civil War! When I told him I didn't want to do the surgery, he said 'you will be sorry'. 20 years later, I'm still NOT SORRY. I'm GLAD. It's too bad UF health doesn't cull out their bad apples.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Jacob?
Had lumbar surgery performed by Dr. Jacob in 2012.Have had disabling symptoms since, which I did not have before surgery.After surgery, tried to communicate with neurosurgery dept. and Dr. Jacob. After several MRIs, I was passed off to pain management dept, who after several spinal injections were able to collect insurance payments, but provided no benefit to me.I would strongly advise anyone needing spinal surgery to pass on these people and seek help elsewhere. Good luck and beware! Likelihoo
