Great Doc!

by SandyGlymph at Citysearch

A doctor that actually listens to your worries and gives you answers. I felt taken care of in his office as he was caring yet totally professional and very knowledgeable. I dont think I ever enjoyed a dr visit so much - as he made me feel valued as a patient. Easy to find office (I didnt get lost!!).

• Pros: Friendly and Professional and Convenient Location

reliable doctor

by GabbyW at Citysearch

I absolutely recommend Dr. Jacobs on a regular basis to friends and family in the area. He is thorough, kind, and always on time. He isn't intimidating like most doctors I've been to and makes it easy for me to ask questions and, most importantly, to get answers. He asks a lot of questions about all aspects of my life in order to get a well-rounded idea of what may be going on with me. I can tell he is always up to date on the latest information and studies because he quotes them when answering my questions. Overall hes a smart and reliable doctor- and hes good looking too!

Wonderful Doctor!

by PamelaMay at Citysearch

Very impressed with Dr. Jacobs! Most doctors have ignored my complaints about my symptoms saying it is nothing and that I was fine. I knew something was off in my body and I had symptoms to show for it. Dr Jacobs listened to me and took me seriously enough to run a few tests and give me a proper diagnosis and suggest a course of treatment. We are currently treating the issue, I feel back to normal and I cannot thank Dr. Jacobs enough! I am so happy I found Dr. Jacobs!

• Pros: Very knowledgeable and caring

Hackneyed Advice from Patronizing Doctor

by atoeinram at Citysearch

A big NO vote on Dr. Jacobs. I came in with a tentative diagnosis from an out-of-network provider at Cedars-Sinai, hoping to establish a relationship with a doctor covered by my insurance. Even though I have test results showing autoimmunity, allergy, malabsorption and digestive issues, Dr. Jacobs treated me like a hysterical middle-aged hypochondriac woman by insisting I was depressed and the depression was causing all my symptoms. What a load of shite...and I'll be paying cash for the CS doc, who actually thinks that the lowest vitamin d levels she's ever seen might be more than a lack of sunshine and too much stress. Dr. Jacobs actually seemed to concur with the CS docs opinion at one point during our visit, but essentially said that the condition usually comes back after treatment, so what's the point of treating it. If you're looking for ersatz charm, Dr. Jacobs is your man; if you need more substantial medical care, don't waste your time and seek help elsewhere.

Great Los Angeles Internist!

by DavidFoller at Citysearch

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Jaocbs. I chose him to be my PCP (primary care physician) from a list my insurance company sent me, and went to him to get a complete physical exam. I did not have to wait long and had my appt with the Dr and the lab work completed on the same day. (The lab is on the same floor). He is a great person, really easy to talk to. I was happy to know he is board certified in internal medicine.

• Pros: takes insurance

Best Doc in town!

by wedding09 at Citysearch

I hate going to the doctor and needed to get some bloodwork done and a physical. Dr. Jacobs was reccomended to me by a co worker so i decided to give it a shot. When I first walked into the office, the receptionist was incredibly attentive and sweet. I did not have to wait long and was seen right away by Dr. Jacobs. He had a warm caring demeanor about him and was very sensitive to my fears. The bloodwork barely hurt, i hardly felt it! I would highly rec Dr. Jacobs to anyone.

• Pros: Caring, sensitive, timely

Great docotr!!!

by dadslilprincess21 at Citysearch

Being new to the area I was having a hard time finding a doctor that I really liked. On my first appointment he made me feel right at ease. It makes such a difference having a doctor that shows he cares by actually listening to his patients. He not only treated my condition but he explained alternative approcahes and we decided together what would be the best path for me. He is an excellant doctor and I highly recommend him to anyone I know. If you are looking for a caring doctor who makes you feel at ease and actualy knows what he is talking about, I would go to Dr. Shahram Jacobs.

• Pros: I was seen in a timely manner.
