UofU Patient May 01, 2013
one of the best doc's I have had
UofU Patient April 25, 2013I left the office to go get blood work done to see if there were some other conditions that may be causing my pain. That was 2-1/2 weeks ago. I've tried twice to request a follow-up and have not received any response. Good thing my PCP gave me the results of my bloodwork, or I'd still be wondering if I have a serious medical condition. I still do not know what the plan is to treat my injury/mysterious pain.
UofU Patient April 23, 2013Dr. Nikish was very caring and concerned.
UofU Patient April 23, 2013The doc and the resident were excellent!
UofU Patient April 17, 2013Have always been treated very well.
UofU Patient April 12, 2013Dr. Nickish never seems in a rush to have us gone, and takes time to answer all our questions, even when we call back with more.
UofU Patient April 09, 2013Dr. Nickisch is always very helpful and understanding. he has done a wonderful job repairing my foot. He has changed my future. I trust his opinion.
UofU Patient April 07, 2013Everything was very good. I felt more explanation could be given on what will happen following surgery as part of the recovery process, but I assume this will come later.
UofU Patient April 05, 2013Dr. Nickisch is the man. He really knows what he's talking about, and he's super polite.
UofU Patient April 03, 2013made our decision very easy to have dr nickisch do my surgery
UofU Patient March 22, 2013After a 45 minute wait, the doctor spent less than 5 minutes with me.

UofU Patient March 01, 2013Dr Nickish seems very concerned and not rushed with his visits. Seems to care about the patient more than others I have seen.
UofU Patient February 15, 2013Dr. Nickisch and his staff are wonderful. He always takes the time to ask if I have any questions or concerns and has always give me an answer. This last time he took the time to explain to me exactly what he did when he operated on my ankle and I really appreciated it.
UofU Patient February 08, 2013I have complete confidence in Dr. Nickisch and his staff and would like them to know that. Thank you.
UofU Patient January 22, 2013I love this doctor. He described each step we would take to fix my injury, if the least-intrusive first step failed.. He's receptive, concerned, a good listener. I'm worried that we're moving toward worst-case scenario, but I trust him to help me through it.

UofU Patient January 16, 2013I had a little confusion about when I was supposed to return
UofU Patient January 01, 2013How lucky was I to accidentally find such an excellent doc at such an improbable time of year? I intended to replace that provider later if necessary. But no, I'll be keeping him.
UofU Patient December 26, 2012Dr.Nickish is always friendly, kind and thorough in giving attention and care to me as a patient.He answers all questions carefully and completely and is never dismissive. I like that he gives good explanations and uses the x-rays and anything else he needs to demonstrate the answers to my questions and concerns. He is also very sympathetic and encouraging in moving me forward in my recovery. I would definitely recommend Dr. Nickish to anyone needing orthopedic care. I have seen many doctors concerning my ankle since my initial injury in 1996 and have had several surgeries on it as well, and Dr. Nickish has by far, been the best!

Dr. Florian Nickisch is absolutely wonderful and really put me at ease with the surgery and what to expect. I would highly recommend his services.
UofU Patient December 13, 2012I just like the atmoshere of the office and the relationship of each other as well as the patients they are seeing throughout the time of my being there. More relaxed than other offices I've been in. Even I hear and can see just how busy they all are. They are all respectful to each other as well.
UofU Patient December 12, 2012I appreciated the Dr. recognizing the emotional impact of the ankle surgery on me now and in what I want to enjoy in life coming up. He gave me a sense of hope even though my ankle's recovery process has been unexpectantly slow and long.
UofU Patient December 10, 2012I had an excellent experience!
UofU Patient December 07, 2012They give me great confidence in the treatment being used for my case
UofU Patient December 05, 2012The work done is excellent. The time it takes is unreasonable.
UofU Patient December 05, 2012I was unclear about what my limitations continued to be now that I was out of the cast and into a boot. I knew I was to have PT, but I'm still not clear on what my limitations continue to be and for how long.

UofU Patient August 31, 2012Thank You for listening to my concerns .... And calling me at home !!!!!
UofU Patient August 23, 2012It seemed rushed. I would have liked to discuss options more. I didn't feel like he really was looking at my symtoms as an individual.
UofU Patient August 17, 2012Dr. Nickerish, his PA and all the assistants who helped make splints, fit appliances/braces were all so kind and helpful as they cared for my son. I appreciate their compassion as much as their professional skills. Thanks for making a tough situation easier!

UofU Patient March 06, 2012Always treated very well.
UofU Patient February 25, 2012I have never felt a time pressure with Dr Nickish or others in his office. I feel sincere concern and know the doctor and his staff will take the needed time to answer my questions and insure that I am comfortable with the diagnosis and planned treatments.
UofU Patient February 25, 2012I am very glad that I got Dr. Nickish - I had no clue when I selected him - it was simply based (back in 12/09) on which foot surgeon had an available appt.
UofU Patient February 14, 2012Yes, he talked to me in words i could understand, yet he did not talk down to me. He treated me with respect.
UofU Patient February 14, 2012The Dr. hardly spent any time with me. My problem is worse when I am walking and he never even bothered to watch me walk. I felt like there could have been more ways of treating the problem I cam in for then to "take an aspirin" when it hurts. It hurts whenever I walk. That is not a solution.
UofU Patient February 14, 2012Time with Dr. Nickish was good, but felt somewhat rushed.
UofU Patient February 07, 2012I was provided information about my condition that was somewhat stressful. I wish I had thought of the questions I had after leaving the office and been provided with a method to ask those questions at some later point following the appointment. I made no attempt to follow up with the office via telephone to try and speak with the care provider about my remaining questions, that may have been successful.
UofU Patient January 28, 2012good
UofU Patient January 24, 2012He recomended I get a MRI. I am waiting on that..... Nicish was very friendly and welcoming.
UofU Patient January 10, 2012All my questions were answered politely, and they gave me a copy of the x-rays! Thanks!
UofU Patient January 07, 2012Dr. Nikkisch has provided excellent care, and I appreciate it.
UofU Patient January 07, 2012I felt like Dr. Nikisch was very rushed at this appointment and left feeling like some of my questions weren't answered fully and not sure how I can get these questions answered.
