When my wife left me Doctor Jacobus took care of me like I was his son. He has shown me compassion and love and for that I will never see anyone else!

Meet Brent A. Jacobus, DO, FACOFP
“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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.
MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
