Dr. Mark C. Jacobson

I feel so fortunate to have found Dr. Jacobson. Never before have I had a doctor as willing to spend the time to listen, answer, and educate-- and I ask a lot of questions! His unhurried bedside manner is rare. My husband and daughter are also patients of his now. I've spoken with him about my daughter's health, beyond allergies, and I find him to be notably well-informed. Dr. Jacobson is remarkably knowledgeable and generous with his time. The office is clean and everyone is warm and professional.

This is how health care should be done. My son has been a patient of Dr. Jacobson for almost 20 years, he started seeing him at age three. It was a very scary time for me as a parent. My son had just been diagnosed with multiple life threatening food allergies. He also has asthma. Dr. Jacobson listened carefully and allowed me to ask all my questions and share my concerns. From the first visit I felt a sense of calm because he is very thorough and took the time to explain everything in detail and ways to manage both the allergies and asthma. We developed action plans which I was able to share with family members and the school. My son was able to advocate for himself because Dr. Jacobson gave him the knowledge and confidence to successfully handle his allergies and asthma. Fast forward to today and he is a healthy college senior. He has a great relationship with Dr. Jacobson. I also know other people who are patients of Dr. Jacobson. He is a gifted physician who is able to diagnose even the most difficult cases. The entire staff is outstanding! We are especially grateful to have received the Covid vaccines and booster at their office, special thanks to Deanna who persevered and secured the doses at a time when most doctors offices could not get them. She is truly amazing. Over the past 20 years, we have received exceptional care from Dr. Jacobson, his nurse Pam and everyone there. This is how health care should be done.

Dr. Jacobson and his staff are an incredible group of people. Dr. Jacobson actually takes time to listen to his patients and answer their questions. His diagnostic skills are fantastic, and he carefully explained why he was ordering the tests he was ordering and the next steps that we would be taking based on the results of those tests. He was also extremely understanding of my time and would do extra work to order lab tests close to my home. I have never had such a great experience with a physician.

Very disappointed on the lack of courtesy related to scheduling. We scheduled our daughters appointment well in advance only to be called 4 hours prior with a cancellation. The receptionist Bobby seemed condescending and unprofessional. This experience is certainly not what I expected. I can only assume as to WHY the level of resolution was mediocre, it could have been my last name. Very disappointed on the lack of courtesy related to scheduling.

5 star in every way!

Dr. Jacobson was very patient with me. He helped me figure out exactly what I was allergic to and how to treat it. Staff is very warm and friendly. I highly recommend you go see him!

Sometimes the day after your birthday does really feel like the first day of the rest of your life. My visit with Dr. Mark Jacobson in Hinsdale yesterday was mind-blowing. I knew I had allergy-related issues but I got ALL the answers in one visit and now have a plan to manage all the weirdness. He is a doctor who listens and his staff is friendly but super-efficient. I left with a plan and so much information. For the first time in forever I feel much better equipped to take on these challenges and kick them to the curb!

I was sick of being sick, desperate for an answer, and saw Dr. Jacobson's credentials. He and his staff are extremely professional, genuine, and forward-thinking. I did not wait and enjoyed visiting, despite circumstances. Dr. Jacobson is extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend. UPDATE: Since visiting Dr. Jacobson after he did a pneumococcal panel and administered the appropriate vaccine, I have not been sick ONCE. I've flown four times across the country. I used to get sick after almost every flight and had a fear of touching door handles because I didn't have the appropriate antibodies. I cannot say thank you enough! This has been LIFE-CHANGING for my personal, familial, and professional life. Thank you! I was sick of being sick, desperate for an answer, and saw Dr. Jacobson's credentials.

Dr. Jacobson is absolutely incredible. It’s very rare to find a doctor who will actually sit down and allow you to voice all of your concerns and ask questions without making you feeling rushed or like you are just “another patient,” but we found that with Dr. Jacobson. He was unbelievably attentive, went above and beyond to investigate and even tested my son numerous times to get an accurate representation of what was really going on with his breathing and allergies. He then spent at least another half an hour explaining things, giving thorough instructions on medications and answering even more questions. From the moment we walked into the office, we felt welcomed and like we were part of the family. Deanna and the amazing nursing staff are the perfect mixture of professional and fun. They had us laughing the whole time and that is priceless. I couldn’t ASK for a better experience at a doctors office. We have an A&A doctor for life in Dr. Jacobson and his amazing staff!

They are out for money only!! didn’thelp me with any of my problems and the girl bobby working the front desk was loud as I sat waiting in my room for the doctor to see me I could hear her and someone else talking about a patients medical history/ problems and then they were being very loud talking about personal life stuff I just know I should have walked out then! Doctor saw me said nothing was wrong with me I left cause the girl at the front didn’t ask for my co pay and now I went to see this doctor in August it’s like November 8th and I’ve gotten a collection agency contacting me for my co payment plus extra 25 dollars!! I gave them the money but bobby proceeds to flight with me on the phone about like it says it on your card that you have a co pay well duh it does!!! She didn’t ask for it when I came in and also clams she sent like 10 bills of it when they didn’t!!! Don’t waste your time plenty better doctors to see if this guy gets a new staff and could give people longer to pay co pays when maybe they forgot about then maybe worth a try but I wouldn’t recommend or waste my time cause bobby doesn’t know how to do the job she was hired for by taking copays as people walk in to the office!!!

Finally, my daughter was treated for her recurring ear infections. Keeping her allergies under control did the trick. Thank you to Dr. Mark Jacobson for getting to the root of her problem.

Dr Jacobson has been such a help to me and the issues I deal with (confirming food allergies, providing environmental allergy solutions, and also provided a solution for a dietary issue I was experiencing).

I was diagnosed and treated for asthma my whole life with medicine and shots. I would get frequent sinus infections that always turned into stubborn bronchitis that wouldn't take forever to go away. I switched allergists this summer and saw Dr. Jacobsen. My initial consultation lasted 45+ minutes and he looked at all of my symptoms and came up with two non-allergy diagnoses. I've stopped taking my asthma medicine that I've been on 30+ years. I'm being treated for the two conditions that Dr. Jacobsen correctly diagnosed. For the first time in my life I have answers and a treatment plan thanks to Dr. Jacobsen. I highly recommend him. Plus, the women in the front as well as the nurses were incredibly nice, efficient, and personable. I was diagnosed and treated for asthma my whole life with medicine and shots.

Because he had successfully diagnosed and treated my child some years ago when she was suffering from a somewhat rare condition, I knew Dr. Jacobson was a skilled and thorough diagnostician. So, when I recently developed a respiratory condition with hard-to-identify root causes, I too, sought his services. Dr. Jacobson’s office is quite the trek from where I live and work and I uncharacteristically arrived a bit late. Nevertheless, his patience and genuine interest in my condition meant that he eventually spent about one and one-half hours with me. Much of that time was spent explaining what he was thinking in significant detail and in soliciting feedback from me. As I left with a treatment plan, I remember asking his receptionist: “How do you make any money here if you treat everyone like that?” Her answer: “We don’t!” While I hope and trust that is an exaggeration, in stark contrast to one of the reviews above, I can honestly say I have not had any physician visit where economics appeared to be further down the list of considerations against patient care. The good news is that while my condition appears complex, it seems Dr. Jacobson has identified the proper course of action and my issues are very much improved only three weeks or so after my visit. Bottom line: I STRONGLY RECOMMEND DR. JACOBSON IF YOU LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOUR DOCTOR IS THINKING AND IF YOU WANT AN HONEST AND THOROUGH EVALUATION.

Dr. Jacobson was extremely knowledgeable about my condition and was able to recommend some very minor lifestyle modification and gentle medication to help manage it. He took his time talking with me, and explaining things in a manner easy to understand. I would definitely refer friends and family to his office!

Dr. Jacobson goes above and beyond to provide solutions to issues patients are dealing with. After a particularly scary incident, I went to see Dr. Jacobson for the first time to find out if what happened was due to food allergies. He led me to answers on my sneezing and dietary issues that I was having and I have seen him yearly since. Thank you for you help, Dr. Jacobson!

The staffing at this place is a joke the front counter girl bobby was talking badly about other patients as I was in my room waiting to see the doctor I could hear her and some other girls I also heard them talking way to much about their personal life and being to loud. As for the doc he seems to be only out for the money I got no help and then to get a bill from a collection agency when my appointment was in August and I had moved and they changed me 25 extra dollars on top see anyone else

Dr Richmond is the most kind, compassionate doctor I have ever met. I work in healthcare. Never met any doctor that puts your needs priority,...first all the time.

I was impressed with the amount of time and thoughtful information Dr. Jacobsen provided in my initial and follow up appointments.

Great experience! My husband and I just went in for our first appointment with Dr. Jacobson and we will definitely be going back! He took so much time with us, listened to us, explained things to us. The staff is awesome, too!

Dr. Jacobson is the most thorough, responsible and caring doctor I have ever been to. He puts so much time and effort into patient care and actually takes the time to call you when necessary. I feel like I can trust Dr. Jacobson to give me the most quality care in allergy and immunology. I would recommend him to anyone.

I have been seeing Dr. Jacobson for over 15 years. 10 years ago I moved to a new home that is 45 minutes away from his office. The care that I receive from him and his staff is well worth the drive. Most of his staff, who are also caring and wonderful, have remained unchanged in that time which is also a testament to the compassionate, family environment in his office. I have many examples of how he has made a difference in my and my son's life. I listed just a few. Truly the reason that he has been so effective in our care is because when he walks into the room and asks, "How have you been?", it's not just a greeting. He sincerely wants to know, he listens and then shares his in-depth knowledge. It is so rare these days to find a medical professional who will take the time to treat you with this level of respect and caring. I developed allergies and asthma after moving to Illinois 18 years ago. Other Dr.'s had me taking up to 12 doses a day of 3-4 meds for the asthma and I was still going to the ER up to once a week in fall (my peak allergy season). After finding Dr. Jacobson, I now have only one inhaler that I use as needed which is infrequently. Dr. Jacobson also treated my son. As an infant, he had been ill and his pediatrician recommended I temporarily stop breast feeding and put him on formula. My son had an anaphylactic reaction to the dairy in the formula. At his age (2 1/2 months) this was not common and the pediatrician had no information for me. I immediately took him to see Dr. Jacobson. A blood test showed that he had other food allergies as well. It is because of the wealth of information Dr. Jacobson had and the clear instructions he gave me that I was able to care for my son and he eventually outgrew his food allergies. Today he eats pizza and ice cream like any other 11 year old. A few years later, I developed acute chest pains on my left side. My general Dr. ran tests on my heart and found no problems. I went to see Dr. Jacobson for a checkup because my asthma had also been increasingly worse. When he asked what else had been going on in my life I told him about the chest pains. He diagnosed GERD (reflux). I later saw a GI Dr., who did tests and confirmed what Dr. Jacobson had told me. My asthma is now again under control and no more chest pains thanks to Dr. Jacobson. For everything...Thank you to Dr. Jacobson, your family, and everyone at your office who has taken care of me and my family I have been seeing Dr. Jacobson for over 15 years. 10 years ago I moved to a new home that is 45 minutes away from his office.
