Dr Jacob took me under his care in 2004, just after I was diagnosed with NMO.
He has always show immense interest in this condition, making a difference and raising awareness amongst fellow professionals about these rare conditions and the importance of early recognition, diagnosis and treatment.
Dr Jacob and his team are a valuable point of contact at The Walton Centre. They are quick to respond and don't waste any time if they feel that they need to see you, request an MRI scan or address any concerns.

I have recommended a person whom I met at a support group meeting to Dr Jacob, and they also have nothing but admiration for him and the way in which he treated them.
Dr Jacob i s a wonderful Doctor.
He is without a doubt an expert in his field.
In 2012 I was diagnosed with MS and ever since being under his care I have felt in such safe hands.
He made excellent decisions to make me better, I would not be this well if it wasn't for Dr Jacob.
Thank you so much.
I was diagnosed with NMO around 2006 and was trawling the web to find out more when there was a request from a doctor to contact him if they had NMO, he had just come from the states etc. That person was Dr Anu Jacobs and he was a life line.
I have a very good neurologist where I live and when I went to him for the first time after my former one had left, one of the first questions he asked was if I was in touch with Dr Jacobs, when I said yes his reply was 'good'.
Dr Jacobs was caring, thorough and he listened. He was also funny and encouraging and although he encouraged me to do as much as I could, he knew my limitations. I speak in the first person, I have heard others say the same. I am sad that he is going but his reasons for going are good as he is. He leaves a legacy behind as he built up the NMO department and even if people don't know it, the excellent care we receive, would not have happened without him.
I am a fan, but then I am or was his patient and anyone lucky enough to be under his care will understand what I mean. Thank you Dr Jacobs I will miss you. Judith
I have worked with Dr Jacob for almost 5 years and he is an excellent, caring, dedicated Doctor; constantly strives for excellence in his field and is passionate about research. It has been an honour to work with him
Dr Jacob Anu, has without doubt been an asset to both The NHS, and NMO SPECTRUM-UK, reg charity number 1158104 as our patron.
From the very first moment of Dr Jacob taking over NMO Services at The Walton Centre, he began to revolutionise the way patients were treated and the way this illness was diagnosed.
Dr Jacob is one of those, very rare people who brings light where there would otherwise be darkness.
