Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I consider Dr. Nichols Jr. a special friend that has taken great care of me in the follow up sessions after my treatment in the newly opened Proton Center in 2006. I thank him for all the courteous exams and explanation of everything that happened and the great results of the treatment. Gary Goetsch

Dr. Nichols is a well prepared, thoughtful,& compassionate Rad-iation Oncologist. He takes the time to answer patient ques-tions based upon medical re-search. He answers patients questions in a scholarly,plain and easy to understanding man-ner. He is confident and thorough based upon his ext-ensive experience supported by research. I was pleased to have him guide the team providing my medical care. I believe anyone would be glad to have Dr. Charles Nichols as their physician. C.Kuebler, FACHE
