Dr. Merlin Jacob
Dr. Merlin Jacob grew up in Dubai until she moved to the United States in high school. She has been a Texan since then. She completed her Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of Houston, and went on to pursue her medical degree at the McGovern Medical School (UTHealth) in Houston. She completed her pediatric residency training at the University of Oklahoma Children’s Hospital in Oklahoma City.
Dr. Jacob became a general pediatrician for the opportunity to build long term relationships with her patients and their families. She is excited to join the Pecan Tree Pediatrics and looks forward to serving your family.
Her faith, family, and friends are what bring her joy. In her free time, she enjoys trying out new recipes, being outdoors, playing board games, catching the latest movie, and mostly spending time with her family, namely her little nieces!
Dr. Jacob works at our Rockwall office. Dr. Jacob is currently accepting new patients.
