How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Stay Far Away
At my pre surgical appt, I sat down with Dr Jacobs and attempted to explain,am that I had recently discontinued pain management and that would complicate my recovery. I kept trying to talk about dosage and the inevitable withdrawl if I didn’t taper. He interrupted me and patted my leg and promised he would make sure I was fine. When I went into Jenny’s office, she explained that Dr Jacobs would be gone the day after my surgery for a week. I told her that concerned me because the prescription they gave me for post surgery was only enough for 5 1/2. Again, I was told I would be taken care of.
He gave me meds to take every Four hours and that is what I did. He gave me enough for 5 1/2 days. I called two days post op because the Medicine was not controlling my pain. Felecia called me back and told me to add Motrin to my regimen. I can’t take NSAIDS, that’s in my chart. I was left just to suffer. I called for a refill two days before I ran out of my first meds and Felecia lectured me.
They refilled the meds for an additional 6 1/2 days. At my follow up, one week after surgery, he didn’t once ask how I felt. He told me to start taking Motrin. I started to remind him that in my chart it tells you I cannot have NSAIDS. He told me he wasn’t writing any more opiates. I couldn’t even talk. I was beside myself. I went home and went back and forth emailing with them and their solution is to send me to a pain management doctor (which when I called their office, they were disgusted about how I am being treated) and I likely won’t be able to get an appointment for weeks OR they can do Marcaine injections at 155 each. So unethical to use my vulnerable and painful state to extort even more money from me. I tried to tell this doctor that I was a special case, but he shushed me and told me it would be okay. This is so far from okay. This is pure patient abandonment over an unreasonable obsession with opiates. I am in pain and now I am left to withdraw from the drugs THEY prescribed with no help. This is patient abandonment. If you are someone who can have a dissection or your abdomen and just take Motrin, by all means go to this practice. Otherwise, stay away. Considering I spent 7k on this, I am going to have recourse. I can chargeback the card and I can sue. I paid for this service and was left to suffer. Unconscionable. I don’t even care about the results right now. I’m so beside myself.
