Dr. Nichols was excellent. She took time to answer my questions, her explanations were direct with good reason. She gave lucid explanation as to the cause of pain and probable duration.She was warm, kind and did not make me feel rushed. I would highly recommend her as an orthopedic surgeon. Thankfully, my fractures will heal themselves over time with no surgical intervention!
What a sweetheart she is she cares so much about you and it feels good because sometimes your family does not. She’s so calm and caring. I told her I didn’t mind coming back to her because I like
Very caring
She is so nice and explains things
Very nice and explained everything very well
Dr Nichols is the most caring and compassionate doctors I have ever met. She’s smart and efficient but also takes her time and validates your concerns. I can’t give her and her nurse Melissa enough stars!
Dr. Nichols is a great listener and takes all the time a patient needs to communicate. Kindness and patience are her hallmarks.
Amazing!

Very thorough and kind. She answered all my questions. I felt I was in excellent hands.
