I am very happy with Dr. Nicholson. He is a very good dr. and I haven't ever had any problems at each of my visits.
At first he though t I was another patient, and that alarmed me a bit because he began asking me questions thinking I was the other patient. He also did not introduce himself at first and this must have lead him to believe I was the other patient as well. His recommendations for future treatment from other sources I did not agree with because I have exhausted many of those modalities, and there was little time to discuss this further. He gave me my pain shots and we made a subsequent app. in 2 weeks. The site shots have given me some relief, but I have other sites that need to be treated, and I understood all the shots I needed could not be performed in one day. At first, I got the impression I was in the hands of a mini god, but later on he seemed more approachable. He also seemed a bit rushed.
Amazing. I will refer everyone.
