JOSEPH B. JACOBS, M.D.
Dr. Jacobs is an internationally recognized rhinologist, whose interest in nasal and sinus disease dates back to 1980 during an era of revolutionary developments in the treatment of these disorders. The advent of high definition x-ray techniques called Cat Scanning, as well as minimally invasive surgical techniques, lead to dramatic changes within the field of sinus treatment and surgery. In addition, the availability of additional medical therapies has profoundly enhanced rhinologists capabilities to control the disease process either with or without surgery. Dr. Jacobs is a pioneer within this field and has specific expertise in the evaluation and treatment of Nasal and Sinus disease. His practice is dedicated to the evaluation and treatment of such disorders including nasal breathing and sinus problems. Detailed information is available within the web site about these topics.
