A caring & easy to talk to Doctor!
Great visit - on time and excellent treatment start to finish
Excellent care
Dr Nicholas is an extremely compassionate and caring surgeon. Dr Nicholas never rushes our appointment and always answers all of my questions in an easy to comprehend manner. Dr. Nicholas has performed a reverse shoulder replacement and a knee replacement with 100% complete recovery. I am scheduling to have my other knee replaced as well. I have complete confidence, trust and belief in Dr. Nicholas. Dr. Nicholas always makes my mental, emotional and physical health as the main decision making components we discuss prior to any of my surgeries. Dr. Nicholas is alway very involved during my pre surgery, surgery and post surgical treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Nicholas to any one who need a caring and professional orthopedic surgeon.
Dr Nicholas is an all around amazing Dr.
It was a pleasure having amazing doctor
Very rushed. Did not take time to listen or explain well. Left me with many questions and in more pain than when I came in.
He is just great and I have been his patient for almost 20 years. He is patient in explaining things and tries to keep my stress level down when I am off the walls on a new issue.
Outstanding doctor. Highly recommend.
Thank you For saving my life & many others , Living a productive life & enjoying Many sports
