A special physician who I encountered 16 years ago for bilateral knee replacement. How fortunate I am that he performed the surgery.

Dr. Nicholas is always friendly and professional. I always feel as though I’m in good hands, and his diagnosis and prescription for recovery is on point.

Dr Nicholas is straight forward presenting the facts with a compassionate demeanor. We are trying different treatments to hold off jumping into surgery now and I value his conservative approach and expert knowledge !
