Dr. Nicholas has provided me orthopedic care for over twenty years for my lower extremities.  
He operated on my knee and injected orthovisc type shots.  He correctly referred my to a back doctor when the leg pain arose from a lower back issue.
He is highly respected, detailed, communicates clearly and a good operator.  We have lots of experience with other orthopedic surgeons for other issues in our family and Dr. Nicholas is up there with the best!
