Doctor Introduction

Dr. Arlene Jacobs, United States


Dr. Jacobs grew up in Miami, Florida, in a close-knit family. She attended Tulane University for both her undergraduate and medical education. She became a Texan when she began her residency at Parkland/UT Southwestern in Dallas and met her husband, Alan. They have two sons and a daughter. She quickly embraced Texas life and is a devoted Dallas Cowboys fan. She also enjoys spending time with family, traveling with her husband and friends, and relaxing at the beach.

A senior partner, she founded PWHC in 1989 and developed a practice in which female physicians care for women from adolescence through menopause. After more than 30 years in practice, her greatest achievement apart from her family is the long-term relationships she has built with patients. Her clinical focus includes robotic surgery and pelvic floor treatment, including care for various forms of incontinence and pelvic support disorders. Her love of obstetrics, including helping patients with recurrent pregnancy loss and infertility, brings her great fulfillment. For the past 15 years, she has focused on perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, helping them improve quality of life and health through bioidentical hormones, nutraceuticals, and healthy diet and exercise.

In 2021, Dr. Jacobs was honored to welcome her daughter, Dr. Feltman, to Plano Women’s Healthcare. Dr. Jacobs feels fortunate to share her passion for caring for women with her daughter.

    Dr. Means is a wonderful doctor! I ultimately had to discontinue my care plan because I moved farther away, but I still recommend her. Communication with the office could sometimes be an uphill battle, and I had several issues with staff that made me question whether it was worth it, but the doctor made it worthwhile. Thank you for my experience and the time I spent in your care! Parking is difficult, so allow extra time to find a space.

    I like Dr. Feltman; she is very cool. The office is nice too.

    Dr. Lee did an excellent job on my bilateral brain surgery! Very informative and nonjudgmental. Always answered all my questions.

    Dr. Feltman is a very caring physician. I saw her as my OB-GYN at 28 and was frightened, but she created such a safe environment that I felt comfortable with her. Her RN Jess was always excellent about replying promptly through Klarna. I would recommend Dr. Feltman to every woman if I could!

    I have been Dr. DaVolio's patient since 2016 and recommend her to anyone in need! She is kind and patient and takes time to give thoughtful answers to every question. She truly listens to concerns and actively seeks solutions. Occasionally, I have been seen after my scheduled time, but her team always explains any delays. Also, she is an obstetrician, and babies do not choose when to arrive. :-)

    My wife and I saw Dr. Lee for our first child, and she was amazing at every step! Her warmth, professionalism, and commitment to the highest-quality care made this new chapter in our lives much easier. Thank you, Dr. Lee!!! ❤️🫶

    Despite the long wait for a new-patient appointment and the lengthy wait time, Dr. Belanger was helpful and gave us good advice. I ask that she give her patients more time.
    Aug 22, 2025
    Dr. Bellanger and her team have been wonderful throughout my pregnancy! The staff are kind and helpful and always respond quickly through the patient app. I highly recommend my experience so far!

    Dr. Feltman is simply the best.
    Jul 22, 2025
    Dr. Feltman is amazing! She is kind and patient. I waited less than 10 minutes each time, and the clinic staff are efficient. I will never look for another obstetrician. She gives you a personalized experience. Absolutely recommended!

    I do not know why I did not write this review sooner... After seeing several obstetricians in Dallas, I found Dr. Lee. She is the most empathetic, kind, and thorough obstetrician I have ever met. My husband and I began IVF with her, and she will also deliver our baby. She deeply respects patient autonomy, always provides information, and never judges. I am sincerely grateful for her exceptional clinical expertise. I will remain her patient as long as she continues practicing. I look forward to our little one meeting the doctor who helped bring her into the world!

    I personally do not recommend this clinic. Many reviews mention poor front desk service or difficulty reaching the clinic by phone, and I can confirm that this was one of my most frustrating experiences. Even when your doctor recommends scheduling on a specific date, the staff struggles to find an appropriate option, which can disrupt your care plan. Once you choose a doctor at the clinic, you cannot switch or receive care from another doctor, and the front desk will not explain why. A nurse eventually explained that, except in emergencies, the doctors prefer not to treat one another's patients. My doctor was Dr. Means. She was fine. I had previously mentioned wanting an IUD but said I was concerned about pain. She quickly said I was not a good candidate and dismissed the idea. The following year, I raised it again and had to ask her for guidance and reassurance about the procedure. I found this interesting because she referred me to a YouTube video she made about different IUDs and how doctors can make patients comfortable. My only complaint about Dr. Means is that she often seemed dismissive. Otherwise, my IUD has been comfortable and problem-free.

    Dr. Feltman is an exceptional physician. She is not only highly skilled but also caring, making every visit feel reassuring and supportive. Her attention extends well beyond clinical care. She takes the time to remember personal details about her patients, reflecting her genuine concern for their well-being. I have complete confidence in her expertise and judgment and am sincerely grateful for her care. I will remain her patient for as long as Dr. Feltman continues to practice.

    I have been very satisfied and impressed with this clinic since transferring from my previous clinic a few weeks into my pregnancy. Although I drive an hour each way, I would gladly come every day if necessary. They answer the phone promptly and address questions patiently. I am very pleased with Dr. Moss and feel I am receiving highly professional, experienced care.

    I was very fortunate to have Dr. Belanger and the MCP care team during my pregnancy. Thanks to Dr. Belanger, my labor and delivery nurses, and the postpartum nurses who cared for my baby, I had the pregnancy experience I had always hoped for.

    Dr. Lucy Li is everything I wanted in an OB-GYN. I searched extensively for a specialist in advanced maternal age who could support me after my years-long IVF journey. When my IVF doctor transferred my care to Dr. Li, everything was perfect. Even when I developed preeclampsia at 35 weeks and had to deliver a month early, Dr. Li guided us through the birth and made all the right decisions to keep my baby and me safe. I trusted Dr. Li with my fourth and final pregnancy and will always be grateful for that choice. I had been under her care since October 2025. During the last week of March 2026, she delivered my healthy 7-pound baby boy at 35 weeks. I cannot thank Dr. Li enough. Watching her work and guide my delivery was incredible. She is exactly where she belongs, doing what she was meant to do—welcoming new life every day and guiding women through this extraordinary journey. Dr. Li is the doctor every woman hopes for during pregnancy, postpartum care, and delivery. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Dr. Lucy Li, for your dedication.

    Dr. Lucy Li = A+++. My wife and I are always saying how wonderful Dr. Lucy Li has been to us. She is exactly the kind of doctor you want. Dr. Lucy Li never rushes, always listens patiently to your concerns, and always asks important questions. It is clear that she loves her work and deeply values her patients' health. The world needs more doctors like Dr. Lucy Li. Thank you for your continued care and support.

    I love Dr. Li!!! She’s always so kind and comforting. I’m always nervous to go to the doctor, but she makes it feel way less scary. She never makes me feel judged or rushed, she treats you like a real human being which is sadly rare to come across these days. Highly recommend!!!

    我非常感谢洛佩兹-克莱因医生,在我之前的妇产科医生拒绝为我做双侧输卵管切除术后,她帮助我完成了整个手术过程。她非常和蔼可亲,知识渊博,手术过程也很顺利。术前,她非常细致地为我做了检查,排除了任何潜在的并发症。 我因为一些不明确的账单问题扣了一颗星。如果我没有核对保险代码,知道手术费用在医保范围内,我可能要自付一大笔钱。我预付了900美元,但医生没有告诉我这笔钱之后可能会退还。当我发信息询问时,那位女士在聊天中对我的态度非常不友好。 需要注意的是,这家诊所位置不太好找。我建议把车停在手术中心,然后上楼穿过天桥。 鉴于目前的情况,我以后可能会继续选择洛佩兹-克莱因医生作为我的妇产科医生,而不是我之前的医生。我强烈推荐她!

    Communication at this facility is terrible. Calls, messages, and texts asking about test results often go unanswered.

    My wife and I have been patients of Dr. Jacobs for more than 15 years, and we can sincerely say that she is the best doctor in Plano. From the beginning, she has shown us exceptional care and a true passion for her work. As a Black couple, representation, comfort, and trust matter deeply to us, and Dr. Jacobs has always created a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where we feel understood and heard. She supported us through one of the most important journeys of our lives, helping us conceive and welcome our daughter. We will never forget her care, patience, and dedication. Dr. Jacobs is always patient and thorough. She explains everything clearly, answers every question, and makes sure you fully understand and feel comfortable. You never feel rushed; you feel valued. Her entire team is equally caring. The clinic is welcoming, professional, and genuinely LGBTQ+ friendly, which is especially important in Texas. We love Dr. Jacobs and are deeply grateful that she has been our family doctor for so many years. If you want a doctor who is not only highly skilled but also caring and principled, she is the one. Highly recommended!

    Dr. Jacobs is highly skilled, knowledgeable, and deeply caring toward her patients. She is an excellent physician with a compassionate and supportive care team.

    She is an excellent doctor: very responsible, kind, and highly professional.
    Jul 18, 2025
    If you have nothing else to do but sit naked on an exam table for hours waiting for the doctor, this clinic is for you. If you value your time as much as the doctor values hers, go elsewhere.

    I met Dr. Jacobs through a mutual friend eight or nine years ago, perhaps longer. The moment we met, I knew she loved her work. I say she cares about her patients because that is exactly how I feel. She supported me through my fertility journey, pregnancy, and the birth of my daughter, who is now five. I love her. Her passion, commitment, and dedication are unmatched. I am glad I met her and will remain with her. 🤍

    She performed surgery on me 15 years ago and resolved all my problems. I was very fortunate to find such a capable surgeon. Now that the condition has returned, I hope to see her again. I trust no one else. She has truly been a blessing!

    A terrible doctor who disrespects patients and exploits the system to make more money.
    Aug 3, 2021
    In the past, I had very poor and painful experiences with medical professionals. Meeting Dr. Jacobs and being under her care was truly a breath of fresh air. It is clear that she is passionate and dedicated to her work. I feel very fortunate to work with her and would definitely recommend her to anyone.

    My mother has seen Dr. Jacobs since I was a baby, and I have now been seeing her for more than 3 years. She is truly remarkable, and I feel lucky to have her as my doctor because she is very busy. Most of her patients are women in their twenties or older who have been seeing her for decades. She genuinely cares about her patients, regardless of age or anything else. Yes, the office can be difficult because you always have to wait. However, she is always fully booked, and people know that even if they arrive early, they will wait at least 30–45 minutes beyond the scheduled time. We know this happens, yet her patients continue to return. Other reviews say this is unprofessional and disrespectful of patients' time, but I disagree. The first time may be surprising, but afterward you learn to clear your day and bring a fully charged phone. Once you enter the exam room with Dr. Jacobs, you receive 100% of her attention. She listens to everything you say and every question or concern. You never feel rushed, ignored, or hurried along. This is why the wait can be long: once she enters the room, she is there for as long as you need and gives patients the utmost respect. She also shares the waiting room with several other doctors, and two offices connect to it. You may see more than 10 people walk from the hall through her door even after staff say you are next, but they may be there for another doctor, nurse practitioner, ultrasound, or lab work. Those visits move faster, so do not be discouraged when others continue ahead; they are not there for the same reason if you have an appointment to see Dr. Jacobs personally. She also has wonderful nurse practitioners who are easier to schedule with, and the wait is usually much shorter. They are excellent if you need that option. After your appointment, they review everything with Dr. Jacobs, so she still provides her insight and opinion!
