The Beginnings
Dr. Jacobs fell in love with Campbell River instantly, and he quickly built up a general practice serving his new neighbours in River City. His interest in laser technology for skin therapy, along with Therry’s diploma in Cosmetology, spurred the opening of Discovery Laser Skin Care Clinic in 2005. In 2014, Dr. Jacobs received his Diploma in Practical Dermatology (DPD) from the University of Cardiff in Wales.
Dr. Jacobs completed his Masters in Practical Dermatology in September 2016, making him one of only a handful of doctors in British Columbia with the MScPD designation. He is also a Fellow of the College of Canadian Family Physicians.
