Dr. Jacob spends the time with me to figure out the best way to confront and treat my medical issues, of which I unfortunately now have many, nothing major, but pesky problems that we have dealt with in order of priority. She also has a good network of specialists and will refer when necessary. Look no further. Sapna Jacob is highly recommended!

This is a top doc selected by the patients, not just her peers. This is one genuine and authentic physician with a lot of knowledge, compassion and the ability to listen. I would highly recommend Dr. Jacob to anyone who is seeking a great PCP. She has truly been the best physician I have seen. In our health care system today, it is a blessing to find someone like her and her amazing, compassionate staff.

New patient with this doctor. When I read her reviews before the appointment, I felt how can a doctor be this well-liked?..... after the appointment, I clearly understood. She is very genuine, truly compassionate and caring. It's very clear she truly loves her job and cares about her patients. Highly recommend!!

Dr. Jacob has helped me manage and control my type II diabetes. She has been a tremendous support at every step. First doctor I have seen that cares so much about her patients. She is always willing to listen and help. She is an absolute asset to the Libertyville, Vernon Hills area.

Dr Jacob is by far the best doctor I've seen, I have trouble finding a doctor I really like and when I went in for a visit my experience was better than any other doctor ! Barely any wait time, receptionist was the most friendly, and this doctor is very dedicated to her work and cares about you as an individual, not just another patient :)
