Dr Jacob is a very pleasant and kind doctor, with a great sense of humour. He has cared for me over nearly twenty years and his knowledge and expertise in his field has instilled great confidence in me. I am going to miss him but wish him every success in his new role.
This doctor gave me my life back
Not sure what else I can say
I met Dr Jacob in 2015. At that time I was on two crutches had severe diplopia as well as lots of other symptoms. NMOSD had been suggested as a possible cause and so I had asked to be referred to Dr Jacob as an NMO specialist. From that time onwards I have not looked back. I felt and still do listened to, I have a better understanding of my condition and because I have a better understanding I feel I have gained some control back from what is and still is an unpredictable illness. Dr Jacob is a great source of knowledge. He takes the time to explain things and he cares about his patients and wants the best outcome that he can get for them. I never once doubted that he wanted that for me and I have gone from strength to strength under his care. I have also been able to join in and attend the patient information days organised every year and this has also been a great source of support. I trust him implicitly
Since Dr. Jacob diagnosed me with NMO after 9 years of trying to get answers elsewhere, I have had nothing but support from this incredible doctor. He has the gift of making you feel like a person and not a number, and always has time to discuss any worries.
NMO is a difficult disease and Dr. Jacob is extremely knowledgable on the subject which is very reassuring.
He is kind, patient, considerate and reassuring.
Dr Jacob was very easy to get along with and I felt that he really knew his subject and especially the detail of my condition which opened my eyes. I am very pleased to have had him as my specialist Consultant and felt in good hands. He told me also some unvarnished facts that again was very helpful.
