During my first visit with Dr. Jacob, I found out the arthroscopic surgery I had had prior to seeing him was unnecessary. He explained that I had 80% arthritis in that knee and I needed a replacement. Several things were outstanding about this doctor: 1. He was very knowledgeable and caring. 2. He truly listens to his patients and proceeds accordingly. 3. He greets you with a great attitude and a smile EVERY time; his bedside manner is exemplary! 4. He is confident, but NEVER cocky. 5. His appointments aren’t overbooked so it’s extremely rare that you have a long wait. These are just a few reasons why I love him! What he doesn’t know is that right before my knee replacement, I spoke to a PA in the operating room. When I told him how great I thought Dr. Jacob was he agreed with me, stating he has consistently seen him calm in and out of the operating room, and he remains so even if something unexpected comes up! Therefore, I recommend him highly and without reservation.
