They always make sure to return my phone call as soon as possible. They've never left me waiting. One thing that really bothers me is bad breath, but I am happy to report that I have no complaints here. Their breath is always very fresh. They listened closely to everything I was telling them, and showed a lot of attention to detail. I've never had to worry about them forgetting something or not reading my information correctly, which I've encountered at other places. They've never used foul language, which has bothered me at some of the other places I've been too. They always make an extra effort to be polite and courteous. One thing I noticed about their office was how absolutely fantastic it smelled. They must clean or sanitize all the time.

I had a very bad experience with Dr. Jessica Jacob during my delivery. I was induced and after a few hours in Labor, the baby’s heart rate started dropping. The medicine was discontinued, the baby’s heart rate stabilized, and I was told that Dr. Jacob was coming to evaluate the situation. Upon entering the L&D room, Dr. Jacob started forcing me into a c-section by screaming at me: “Brain Damage!!! IQ goes down!!! You are an Idiot!!!”
I was really intimidated and could not ask her about the baby’s heart rate, other
options, … I only said: “Why are you screaming at me?”
After returning home, I requested my hospital records. I was shocked to see the report signed by Dr. Jacob that stated that after the induction was stopped, the baby’s heart rate became “a beautiful tracing”. I also found out from my c-section records that my c-section was “non-emergent”, my placenta was fine, and the cord’s ph was above 7.2 (border line) or even above 7.25 (recommended level). It is believed that baby does not get enough oxygen if ph is below 7.2 and c-section is recommended for ph lower than 7.2. It became clear that there was no emergency when Dr. Jacob was screaming at me.
I understand that Dr. Jacob came to my L&D room late at night and she was tired, but it does not give her the right to abuse me. If c-section was Dr. Jacob’s recommendation, she was not supposed to scream at me and insult me by calling me “An Idiot!” Therefore, I am no longer Dr. Jacob’s patient and cannot recommend her to anyone
