My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

“Prevention is better than cure.” Desiderius Erasmus   

Being a physician has been my life-long passion! There is nothing else in life that I have wanted to do. For close to 30 years I have enjoyed caring for my patients as my extended family. My goal is to provide quality care to each one of my patients. Our personalized family medicine practice will work with you to create an individualized wellness plan that will help address your physical and emotional health. You will receive a unique, personalized plan of care.   

In today's complex medical environment, it is important for you to have a primary care physician who has the time and tools to put you and your health first. That is what you will find at our Crown Point, Indiana location. You will feel welcomed by the relaxed, individualized attention you'll receive from everyone in our office. We provide a friendly, compassionate environment and are dedicated to making your visit efficient and memorable. Our team is waiting to serve you!  

As an MDVIP patient, you will receive a yearly extensive wellness exam that includes state of the art lab testing sanctioned by the renowned Cleveland HeartLab. We will use this exam as a starting point to begin your individualized wellness plan and help you stay on the path to healthy living.   

My partner, Dr. Brett Brechner, and I understand and recognize the need for proactive, preventive care in thwarting disease and illness. Our passion continues to be patient care and providing clinical knowledge in a compassionate and friendly environment. I also offer conveniences, like same- or next-day appointments that start on time, which may be found in concierge medicine practices. 

Aside from the practice of medicine, my devotion is to my faith, family and friends.

Although I just joined MDVIP, I have been seeing Dr. Brent Jacobus for several years. Dr. Brent is a very caring, genuine person, who treats his patients as if they were his own family. I began going to him due to anxiety, and he made me feel so comfortable by taking medicine to help with this condition.

from Megan in IN March 10, 2020 for Brent A. Jacobus, DO, FACOFP

11 days ago I woke up with an infected tooth! As I have 2 joint replacements it was a risk to wait 4 days to see my dentist as he was unavailable!

My tooth was saved and the pain was gone by the time I could see my dentist! He is always there for me but this… See more

from Amy in IN March 10, 2020 for Brent A. Jacobus, DO, FACOFP

I absolutely love how Dr. Jacobus and his team make my family and I feel like apart of their family. In my past experiences some doctors wouldn't even take the time to actually listen. They do listen and you can tell they truly care.

from Frankie February 12, 2020 for Brent A. Jacobus, DO, FACOFP

I am a very healthy person considering my age. I have needed Dr. Jacobus only one time in the past 6 months. He was there to help me when I called. I didnt have to go to the ER, which made me very happy. We discussed my problem and he diagnosed it and called a prescription to CVS. I trust him and that is very important to me. He listens to what I have to say and gives me his thoughts on the… See more
