"I traveled from out of state. Where I live there is a shortage of GI doctors. I needed my three year follow up colonoscopy, which was due in March. I had a a large precancerous polyp removed the last time. I'm also experiencing new onset bowel changes. I received an appointment within a week. My colonoscopy is scheduled for July 16th. I couldn't be more pleased. The staff is professional. Dr. Jacob's was professional ,non intimidating, and a good listener. 👍"

"Dr. Jacob has been my gastroenterologist since 2005. My life changed dramatically in 2011 after a surgical catastrophe caused me to lose almost all of my small intestines. Since then, he has been responsible for maintaining my vitamin levels, due to malabsorption, through multivitamin infusions, oral medication and monthly lab tests. He is a fantastic physician and human being who treats his patients with great sensitivity and respect. If you are in need of a gastroenterologist Dr. James Jacob is the best choice."

"Madonna, Lori, Annabelle and Emily were the perfect staff on the day of my EGD. They were very professional, yet they were very personable, which put me at ease. Give them all an A+ and St Francis is very lucky to have them. This was my second time having Dr Jacob perform the procedure and he was excellent as always. He explained all that would be going on and what he was going to be looking for during the procedure. Very friendly and very, very professional. If I’m ever in need of a similar visit, I will ask for the doctor once again. Very good experience overall."

"I have been sick for over a month and in that time I’ve lost twenty pounds. I went to the emergency room twice just to be dismissed without any real answers. Dr. Jacob is the first person who I felt has actually listened to my concerns and has went above and beyond the call of duty to try and get me answers. I really feel like if it wasn’t for him I’d still be at square one trying to figure out what is going on with my health. A huge thanks goes out to him and all of the staff members at Indianapolis Gastroenterology and Hepatology!!!"

"Dr. Jacob recently performed his fifth colonoscopy on me. I have used his services for more than 20 years. The polyps he removed over the years were prevented from becoming cancerous, and I'm convinced a little discomfort every five years contributed to my longevity. Needless to say I hardily recommend his professionalism, and skills."

"I have been with Dr. Jacobs for nearly 30 years! He has saved my life, at least 4 times, I do not believe you could find anyone in his field that is more knowledgable, thorough or better with his patients."

5.0 Review from C.G. Source: Google May 25 2022

"He’s been my doctor for years and I love the way he takes care of things and he took care of my mother for several years before she died. He made a great comment about her that made me fill really good and he said she was the best patient he had ever had. He is a wonderful person and very friendly and takes time out for his patients and is very thorough in his work and it’s hard to find a doctor that is like this and the only thing I have against him is the rescheduling me three times that was not my fault but was supposed emergency calls for other patients but that is okay and understanding it happens. Thank you doctor and God bless you always. Oh and from my understanding he might be retiring soon in the near future."
