“Dr. Nicholson was compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable about my shoulder problem. He demonstrated the source of my pain on the X-ray, assessed my shoulder limitations through a series of tests, and presented me with my treatment options. I would recommend him to other patients. I selected this physician because of his medical school education, the location of his residencies, and his fellowship training. Very few orthopedics have such a rich background.”
