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.

Dr Jacobs is thorough and very competent. Excited to see results of the vein removal.

Amazing Physician
Everyone was amazing. Extremely helpful, cordial. Front the frontline at the registration, medical technician who took the vital signs, technician who performed the ultra sound and Dr. Jacobs. No delays at all. Dr. Jacobs took her time in explaining everything in detail and very assuring. There was no rush in anything. I felt at ease. I had a phenomenal at this visit. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the names of others. But everyone should be recognized for their above and beyond attitude.
