This is a surgeon who knows his specialty so well that it reflects in the post surgical observation of the wound and its healing..definitely a unique individual. I would most definitely recommend him to anyone who needed a skilled orthopedic surgeon.

Thank you for the exceptional care and kindness. I’m thankful grateful and blessed. I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon nor a more qualified team of physicians and staff. On a scale from 1 to 10 I honestly think they go above and beyond therefore an 11 and higher is the best number for the entire team. Thank you 🙏😇

Dr. Nicholas is the best. He is that rare breed of someone who is tops in his field - but is so comforting and caring and really takes the time to speak with you. His decisions/facts are always well explained. And…he is just a super nice person.
