Dr. Nicholas gave me a completely transparent and confident assessment of my problem and moved quickly in recommending meniscus repair procedure. His entire approach -- as well as other staff members -- was extremely professional. One unique approach is that Dr Nicholas is easy to contact with questions and is extremely timely in responding.
