Dr. Jacoby is excellent and a highly knowledgeable professional. She also cared that I was unable to have a resident examine me and then her since pushing on my eye was causing me to feel like I wanted to faint. She explained well what happened to my eye and gave me very clear instructions on what I should do to prevent further injury.

Usually this doctor gives more information and attention. However she was pleasant but short and seemed really not interested in my father the patient. My father said that she wasn't very friendly today and she didn't really give an opening to ask any questions or concerns. Totally unlike previous visits. Hate to complain but my dad is 92 and deserves some bedside manners.
