I love Dr. Jacobs. He did inform me he was leaving the practice in Feb. He told me I should have gotten a notice in My Chart from his staff letting me know of the change. However, I did not. I am disappointed the staff didn't send me the letter and I was blindsided by the information. I am truly devastated he is leaving bc I will miss Dr. Jacobs and appreciate all that he has done for me over the years. Not sure if there is another Dr that I will be able to trust as much as him.

Dr. Jacobs is truly one of the best endocrinologists I've ever encountered. His thoroughness, attention to detail, and genuine concern for his patients' well-being set him apart. He takes the time to listen, explain, and ensure that every aspect of our health is considered-not just the numbers on a chart. His care feels personal, not procedural, and that makes all the difference. I'm grateful for his dedication and the peace of mind he brings to every visit.

Dr. Jacobs understood my frustration and we talked through several options. He also explained why the GMI from my Dexcom G7 didn't necessarily correlate to my A1C. ( I was worried that my A1C had gone up markedly but in fact it was very good.)Even though there are no real magic potions for weight loss that will work with my other conditions and meds, I left feeling less frustrated.
