If only a 10-star rating were possible ��� he would deserve it! Our entire family adores him. He has a remarkable gift for making each of us feel truly valued. His care and compassion are authentic, and he gives you his full attention during every visit. He stays current with the latest advances in medicine and never rushes ��� he takes whatever time you need. He is, quite simply, the ideal primary care.

Dr Nik is a one-of-a-kind family physician - who always makes me feel heard. So caring. He addressed all my small concerns and saved me time by combining two blood draw orders (for my physical and for gastroenterology order).

It’s a nice feeling when you go into your doctor and you know that he really listens to what you say. He has questions to make sure he understands you well he remembers past conversations you’ve had with him or past medical program problems you’ve had and you feel like you’re talking to an old-fashioned Dr that everybody wishes for and I’m the lucky person who has one I just I couldn’t have a better doctor. He’s amazing.

I like that he really listens to what I have to say and he asked questions about what I’m saying. He then will discuss with me. The best practices on how to make me feel better. He brings up pass test to remind me of how I’m doing now and what I’m doing now and then we go over my medication list and see you need to be why I’m still staying on them and he’s just a very warm caring man.
