Dr. Jacobsen is amazing! He's done 2 surgeries for my daughter, is super caring and welcomes any and all questions to make sure we have a good understanding and feel comfortable. He's great at making sure my daughter is included in the conversation and is always upbeat and has a great bedside manner!
We appreciate Dr Jacobsen. We have felt well taken care of for the surgery on the first leg/knee and have confidence in his care for the upcoming surgery on the other leg/knee.
Dr. Jacobsen cares about his patients.
Dr Jacobsen was friendly, professional, and helped me understand my child's medical concerns and what to expect going forward. Would recommend to others!
He explained the care in understandable manner. But it took almost 3 weeks to hear from him about the results for my child that potentially could have changed my child's care. I was meeting with him via video call and I did not feel that him or his office were considerate of my time and expected me to be ready whenever he was as opposed to being able to set up an appointment.
100% recommend Dr. Jacobsen! He was so professional, reassuring, and kind to my daughter! Seamless surgery and recovery! Thank you!

Dr Jacobsen is extremely kind and compassionate. He speaks at a level we understood while still being an authority. We appreciate his patience with our many questions, and his thoroughness in answering them. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others.
Doctor Jacobson is amazing. We're having to do a second surgery on my son and he opened up time to see him twice in one day along with being sure that we could get an MRI at the same day. He was able to open up his schedule and he will be able to get the surgery within two weeks instead of two months thank you.

He was amazing with my daughter
My three year old felt very comfortable with Dr. Jacobsen.
Dr. Jacobsen was very helpful and thorough in his explanation about options and how to proceed with my son's broken arm. We chose surgery and he was very good about getting us into asap.
Dr. Jacobsen is knowledgeable as well as personable. He spoke to my son and helped him to feel comfortable. Then he carefully explained how to care for his injury to both of us. He showed me the x-rays through the whole healing process and explained the next step of the healing process. I highly recommend him.
Dr Jacobsen takes time to make sure the patient is understood and has the time they need.
