Dr. Barry Jay Jacobson, MD

I have been a patient for over 34 years from infertility issues to a successful full term pregnancy. I ruptured diverticulum in my bowel need immediate surgery he was the only doctor in the ER smart enough to order an xray of my stomach. Then in 2016 a compression fracture in my back. Now I see him for my bone health. I have gone from Osteoporosis to Osteopenia. I HIGHLY recommend him and always will.

Dr Jacobson is the best!

Dr. Jacobson took his time explaining my diagnosis. Very undestranding and caring. I would recommend him.

I've been seeing Dr jacobson for over 33 yrs! I moved to NJ and still travel to PA to see him every yr for my annual exam. I believe he always had my best interest at heart. I read some of the negative reviews and can't believe they are talking about the same man I know and trust! are describing the man I know and trust. He talks very fast so if u have questions or don't understand what he is saying just ask him to slow down. He's just an energized bunny by nature. He truly knows his stuff. Ill be lost if he ever decides to retire. If u want a knowledgeable ob gyn doc who will treat u through child rearing age thru menopause, he is ur doc.. Highly recommend

Visits people with fractures at inpatient rehab centers pushing Prolia. Does not check other medication interactions or medical conditions. All I know is after the 3 and 4th injection the person I care for problems started. After some hospitalizations, was told by hospital to stop the Prolia. The Man even had the nerve to call and ask why it was stopped and try to talk back into taking it again. Most likely because it is a expensive drug.

I have both of my girls under his care .Frankly he is very very professional.

I was incredibly disappointed with this doctor. Throughout my visit he Barely looked at me (into his computer) Spoke quickly Was extremely disrespectful forcing me to get genetic testing because of family history and if I did not stating that he never wanted to hear about my family history again? Does he get a cut from genetic testing? Zero empathy I'll never go back to him

A few months back I saw Dr. Jacobsen. I was never informed by him how much the Reclast treatment would cost. Hiss assistant, Karen, checked with my insurance and informed me that I wad fully covered. i went ahead with it. I have been receiving a bill for $300 some dollars. It was their mistake not letting me know there would be a charge. If known, I would have not done it. I would have taken monthly medication. Of course its more moneyIin his pocket. I was lied to and wil not pay the bil. He takes advantage of his patients for personal gain. I will never go back again.

Staff do not always answer the phone and admit there is not enough office staff to keep up with the patient volume. Messages may go several days without a response. Massive communication where my mother was in-patient and taken off coumadin. Dr. Jacobson, with offices in the same building, was added as a consulting physician so she could get the prolia shot on time. Dr. Jacobson was unresponsive and the treating physicians said they could wait no longer, they needed to restart the coumadin. Dr jacobson them told me to call his office when she was being discharged. They could stop the coumadin and she could be wheeled right up to his office. The additional bone loss would be minimal. I tried to call his office to let him know she was being discharged on a Tuesday several times but got no response to messages -- until Monday morning when i was advised they just didn't have the staff to respond to all the messages and now my 91 year old mother, having suffered a fall, broken bones and 3… months in and out of hospitals and rehab centers will need to make yet another appt. Dr Jacobson may be the greatest bone density doctor in the world but if you have to leave 4 messages to get a return call for an appointment and can't get a response, I'm not sure the overall impact is good.

Jackie and Dr. Jacobson, spend time with you, do not treat you like you are just a number. They act like they care and are very good at explaining things and answering any quesitons I have.
