Dr Nikkel was personable and didn't make e feel rushed. He understood my pain and my difficulties and offered a good and reasonable solution. I found him to be genuinely caring. I would definitely refer him to others.

Did not have to wait very long, this was my first time visit and I didn't get to finish the questionnaire form before they called me into the x-ray room and right into the patient room. He very clearly explained everything to me.
