About Dr. Jacobs
Dr. Laurence "Laurie" Jacobs is a Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility (REI) specialist with 47 years of clinical experience. He graduated from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, completed a four-year OB/GYN residency at Northwestern, and spent seven years practicing as an OB/GYN before completing his REI fellowship at the Mayo Clinic.
He specializes in treating female and male infertility, ovulation disorders, IVF, recurrent pregnancy losses (RPL), endometriosis, and complex metabolic disorders such as PCOS. Across nearly five decades of practice, Dr. Jacobs has built one of the deepest bases of clinical experience in reproductive endocrinology in the field.
Dr. Jacobs is known by his patients for his empathy, quick wit, and steady commitment to helping them have a healthy baby. With almost 40 years of IVF experience behind him, he strongly encourages patients who have experienced a failed IVF cycle to seek a second opinion — a perspective shaped by decades of seeing what a fresh set of eyes can reveal.
At Ovum Health, Dr. Jacobs brings this depth of experience to telehealth, offering patients navigating infertility, RPL, or a disappointing prior IVF outcome a thorough, experienced second look — and a clear, compassionate path forward.
"After nearly 40 years and thousands of IVF cycles, I've learned that a second opinion can be the difference between giving up and having a healthy baby."
