Dr. Nichol should lose his license, he won't because of union incompetence.
My mom has a blood clot in her leg, it has gotten so bad her for was cold and leg so swollen she could not walk. He gave her blood thinners and told her to go home. Finally, on her third visit to the ER, a competent Dr. Looked at her and immediately got her ready to head to the U of A for surgery to remove the clot and get proper treatment.

Please stop this man.
Thanks,
A concerned tax payer

Dr. Nichol was in charge of care for my grandfather here’s a list of the things he didn’t do: he didn’t sign for prescriptions which often lead to a late administration, he stated that there was many options for my grandfathers pain but never tried another option when the first one wasn’t working. After my grandfathers passing he didn’t sign the death certificate for over 5 days so he couldn’t be cremated and brought home.

All in all a horrible, careless doctor who lacks any compassion or knowledge of the medical field.

A number of years ago I saw Dr Nichol for pain in my back and cough, he listened to my lungs and then told me to go home and take an Advil. Two days later I saw my own Dr , turns out I had double pneumonia! Would not ever see this dr again

I feel I must leave a comment , my son Richard was taken to the emerg on Thursday afternoon , and we were lucky enough to have Dr Nichol on call who is our Dr , he was very efficient, and wasted no time dealing with the situation at hand , he did what was necessary to make sure my son got the best care possible, he listened, and answered all my questions, and was very pleasant,and very knowledgeable, I wish we had more Dr's like him , so thank you for your fast action because of you we still have our son keep doing what your doing . What you do so well ,

After My last appointment to the doctor to review blood tests It will be the last time I go to him. He never showed me the results or explained anything from the test for gout. All he said, "well the uric acid level is alittle high but couldn't say if it was gout. Then he said, "What are you going to do about it?". What a stupid thing to say, when he is the doctor that is suppose to give advice. The walk in had ordered the test so think maybe he was mad he wasn't getting paid for them. I have been happy with him until now but will certainly not go back to him in the future or recommend him to anyone.

This Dr. helped diagnose a condition that I have been coping with for 5 years and quickly got the problem treated with surgery. Thank you so much for listening and ordering the appropriate tests. This will change my life.

Nichol was my family doctor from childhood and the only thing I was ever successfully diagnosed with was chicken pox, 26 years ago. He outright refused to treat my anxiety and depression, when I went to him with chronic pain after a back injury he snubbed me with nothing more than " you hurt your back, there's nothing to be done" and when I went to him with terrible, extremely painful periods and ovulation he simply said " oh, that sucks." I tried to get a copy of an Rx I lost, his nurse, Barb, refused to even ask as he was " in his last appointment for the day and then leaves for vacation, he doesnt have time." Which forced me to go cold turkey off Effexor, causing severe withdrawal syndrome that I still suffer from. I stopped seeing him and have since been put on proper anxiety medication, got diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and had a partial hysterectomy, and I am in the process of having my chronic pain diagnosed and treated. Go to Wetaskawin, go to Beaumont, go to Daysland, heck, go anywhere but Camrose if you want to be treated proper.

Absolutely horrible doctor. Waste of time. If you see him run the other direction. He holds his nose up and looks down on everyone.

If you have to see this man ever in emergency please go get another opinion because you've probably been misdiagnosed and looked over.

Dr. Nichol has been my Physician for approximately 5 years now. He is very intelligent, insightful, and direct. He ordered the appropriate tests to help me achieve a necessary surgery, and has also done a couple basic procedures right at the time of my visit.
I've recommended members of my Family (who now see him for care), and also many friends that have found him both professional and helpful in their care. I'd strongly recommend Dr. Chris Nichol to anyone. Thank you.

Always very respectful. He never makes you feel rushed and is willing to take time to answer any questions.
