Dr. Jacobs practiced dermatopathology in a private lab for six years prior to founding DermLab. With board certifications in dermatology and dermatopathology, as well as a background in seeing and treating dermatology patients, Dr. Jacobs enjoys challenging dermatopathology cases. By employing clinicopathologic correlation through discussion with providers and review of any available clinical images, Dr. Jacobs is able to provide the most accurate and clinically helpful histologic diagnosis. He also enjoys teaching dermatopathology to medical residents and other medical learners, helping to prepare them both for dermatology board exams and daily clinical practice.
