Janie Jacobs, MD, FAAP

Dr. Jacobs and her husband, a Circuit Court Judge for Boone and Callaway Counties, live in Columbia. They have a toddler son and infant twin daughters.  In their free time they like to watch sports together, visit museums, and spend time with friends and family. They have made The Crossing their church home. Dr. Jacobs loves the variety in pediatrics that comes from each stage in children’s lives. Issues that are of particular interest to her are the safety of vaccines and the positive difference they have made in the well being of children, as well as increasing access to acute care through a child’s medical home – their primary care doctor’s office.
