Explanation

Dr Nikolic has always explained things in a way that I can understand without being condescending or patronising and has worked hard to provide me with every and the best possible options at each stage of the process. I’ve always felt heard and listened to and no question has ever felt too small or insignificant to expect an answer too. Dr Nikolic has always made time to address not only my questions but also those that affect my husband when he’s attending appointments, allowing us greater clarity when making important decisions which affect our future. Embarking on SCS surgery was not a decision taken lightly and has been a huge undertaking but I’m very grateful to have had excellent and comprehensive support at every stage of the process including planning and recovery, to ensure the best possible outcome.

Dr Nikolic is very pleasant and explained the procedure to me thoroughly, making sure I understood. His clinic notes are always very thorough and he made sure to ask his secretary to contact me after procedure as to how I was. Had follow up and was happy to receive another email from secretary on behalf of Dr Nikolic to see how I am. I have felt very well looked after.
