Dr. Nicky Jacobsen

Originally from Liverpool, I qualified from Oxford University many moons ago in 2000. I initially trained as a surgeon and specialised in Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) surgery working in Edinburgh, London and Cambridge before seeing the light and switching to General Practice in 2007.  My first placement was in Wantage when I worked at the practice for 6 months as a GP trainee.  As a result we set up home here and have not left. I have subsequently worked in Berinsfield and Witney but was keen to return to Wantage when a job became available.

I enjoy all aspects of general practice and love the variety that the day can bring.  I have kept up my enthusiasm for ENT and also work as the Clinical Lead for ENT in OXFORDSHIRE at the CCG, trying to improve ENT services for patients.

I have three children and enjoy swimming when I get a bit of free time! We have recently acquired a campervan which hopefully will bring lots of fun adventures in the future
