Meet Brett A. Brechner, DO


The focus of my family medicine practice is you and your future health. I want to provide you with personalized healthcare in a comfortable setting. As your primary care physician, I will walk alongside you and take a proactive approach to enhancing your health. As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, I will have more time to develop close relationships with my patients and comprehensively care for their health. We will journey together as we serve your specific and individual healthcare needs. I also offer conveniences, like same- or next-day appointments that start on time, which may be found in concierge medicine practices. 

My partner, Dr. Brent Jacobus, 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 the highest level of clinical knowledge in a compassionate and friendly environment. 

I am originally from northwest Indiana and have practiced medicine locally for 17 years. Needless to say, I love our community and enjoy serving its people! My personal interests include spending time with my wife and three boys, enjoying the Lake Michigan beach, community volunteer involvement, mission trips, triathlons and of course... basketball. 

Board-certified as a family doctor, I enjoy caring for all ages and health issues at every stage of life. My hospital affiliations include St. Mary Medical Center and Pinnacle Hospital.

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.

I am 56 years old, not overweight, exercise 5-6 times a week, and found myself getting very ill for no apparent reason this year. I have not been happy with my primary care physician for years, but haven’t had any major health issues, so only saw her once a year for my annual health exam.

My Dr is the best there is. He is very patient in listening to any knew symptom you may have; He will take it seriously and do any test necessary to get an answer.

My husband would have seizure's which never was diagnosed. Dr. Brechner tested for Read more...

from Cassie in IN • February 21, 2024
Image provided by: Cassie
When I first came to Dr. Brechner I was a mess! I was severely depressed and full of anxiety because I had been dismissed by SO MANY doctors. I felt no one cared to get to the root of the problem or even admit there was one. He actually listened (without rolling the eyes) and I felt somehow he understood this 'chronic invisible illness' I had. He cared. He ordered more testing, Read more...
