Patient Reviews
Jan 29, 2025
I am in my fifteenth year attending the office of Dr. Jakob. This office has been nothing but a pleasure to visit. Every aspect from making an appointment to check-in to getting settled with her assistant has been pleasant; one of the most efficient offices I've ever been in.Dr. Jakob is the headliner though. She has always provided insight, suggestions, treatment and follow-up. She always shows care and concern for me as a patient. Other health care professionals should take note.
