Dr. Kim Myruth Nichols

It took me 4 months to write this review. I am physically and mentally traumatized by my experience with this office. They sold me an "eye rejuvenation" package to treat my dark circles which cost thousands of dollars. I WAS NOT WARNED OF ANY RISKS. I was promised skin tightening and improvement in dark circles but instead, the physician's assistants destroyed the fat on my face with a Cutera radiofrequency device. Now I look 20 years older than I did when I walked in and am left skeletal - sunken temples, hollow sink holes for eyes, DEEP wrinkly under eyes I never had, fallen sagging cheeks and deep marionette lines. My whole face structure has fallen. After this happened, the NicholsMD staff coldly turned me away, would not let me see or talk to Kim Nichols and even held my medical records from me when I requested them so that they could be "reviewed" by her. My records were then altered to say that I lost weight and that's why my face l

Dr Nichols was recommended to me. I needed a milia removed from my face and consequently discussed btox for the deep lines in my forehead. Previously had btox with a bad reaction (teepee eyebrows and eyelids drooped). Dr. Nichols felt this was the skill of the injector and would not happen again. Unfortunately, I'm one of the 2% that react to btox and had a similar reaction. I do not blame her. However, here's the issue...I called 10 days after injection to let them know I was dissatisfied and was scheduled in a few days for a "tune-up." This is when they tweak the first treatment and give the 2nd half of the injections. NO ONE RETURNED THE CALL! I wasn't too upset, as I knew I had my follow up in a few days. At the follow up the PA confirmed the drooping and took pictures. She took my concerns to Nichols (pictures did not show well) and Dr. Nichols REFUSED TO SEE ME! I asked if I could receive a SERVICE CREDIT, not even money back for 2nd half of treatment. Answer- No!

Unprofessional

No

I am a former patient of Dr. Nichols. I was being treated for a skin condition. During every visit, I always felt rushed by her, she didn't listen to my concerns at all and was usually very condescending when she spoke. She prescribed pharmaceuticals based on what worked for her other patients instead of giving me an individualized prescription based on my own unique needs. She had even prescribed a scalp oil that had peanut oil but didn't ask if I was allergic to peanuts. I was her patient for a few years and my condition became worse. When I switched to another doctor who worked at the same practice as Dr. Nichols, the doctor was the polar opposite of Dr. Nichols. She took the time to listen, answered all of my questions, and changed all of my prescriptions that Dr. Nichols had previously written. Within a few months, I noticed a considerable and consistent difference. My current doctor was able to do in a few months what Dr. Nichols couldn't do in a few years. Dr. Nichols only seems interested in pushing expensive procedures and prescriptions instead of actually helping her patients.

My daughter struggled with acne since she was 12. After visiting a local dermatologist for 2 years my teenager was just frustrated at the lack of improvement. At 14 we sought out Doctor Nichols. Her knowledge of skin conditions and acne in teens is impressive. Although her services are pricey, they worked wonders on my daughter. Skin is an investment. Her skin is clear and bright with only the occasional blemish. It has greatly improved my daughter's self-esteem regarding her skin. A rating.

I had the opportunity to have SECRET RF with Katie French PA. It was absolutely painless and I am so excited about the results. I cannot wait for my next treatment. Dr. Nichols and her staff are absolutely the best. I read reviews on Secret RF and was concerned about the numbing cream and pain. Shantay was awesome applying the numbing cream. Absolutely no pain. Katie French - PA was absolutely amazing, considerate and kept asking if I was ok. I love Dr Nichols and her entire staff. I recommend everyone to NIchols MD.

A good friend gifted me a certificate for my birthday to NICHOLSMD for a facial. I thought it would be an ideal time to also get some injectable filler and some botox. Without researching their background or reviews, I made my appointment. There is a mandatory $3250 consultation fee. However, I knew exactly what procedure I wanted to be done and didn't need a consultation. Their consultation consisted of trying to aggressively sell facial products. And that was just the beginning. NICHOLSMD charges by the area and not on how many units or syringes. That's fine when you promise to fill those areas correctly but if you need more to fill the area she will charge you an absurd additional fee. I made my appointment with Dr. Kim Nichols but instead Katie, the Physicians Assistant was there to greet me and performed the procedures. She injected Botox into my forehead lines, 11's and crow's feet. Katie explained that I would look great if we also did my jawline and cheekbones. That was a hefty add on to the bill. I agreed and was excited to make this investment in my appearance and feel refreshed. As Katie proceeded to do my jawline she stuck the needle of Radiesse into my jaw bone, I saw stars and now my teeth on the bottom right side hurt. When I jumped out of my seat and told her she shrugged it off. After Katie was done, I was escorted to another room to pay my bill. Without giving me a final total, I was asked for my credit card. I was charged without a receipt being offered. When I asked for my receipt I saw it was more than the amount I had anticipated. It gets worse! I wake up the next day and my son wants to know why my lips are crooked. I go out to dinner the night after and the restaurant owner who is a good friend of mine wants to know what I did to my face because he said it looks terrible. I look in the mirror and my right eyebrow is a half-inch higher than the left. I call the office three times to speak with Dr. Nichols. She was always too busy, to speak with me. Finally, I receive a call back from the physician's assistant (not from the doctor to who I wish to speak). She advised me to let it settle for a little and come back in a week. I showed up a week later and she acknowledges that my lips are crooked and my eyebrow is indeed higher. She pacified me with a little Botox and sends me on my way. I remain disappointed by the lack of any discernible improvement. My lips are turned downward now which makes me look as though I’m frowning all the time and my lips are still thin. I also have a lump on each side of my jaw where she injected. So again I called them for another appointment to explain these issues. Finally, Dr. Nichols came into the room already defensive and rude. She said my expectations were too high and if I was not satisfied then “I can make a right out of the room and there’s the door”. For $5,2000 I do expect to see good results. This establishment profits from their disappointing standards, leaving the patient with little recourse except to exit.

This has been one of the most unprofessional medical practices I have ever dealt with throughout my years. I scheduled a first appointment for my teen daughter , which the office called the day prior to inform me that the appointment needed to be rescheduled for the following week because Dr. Nichols needed to leave early. Now I received another call today canceling the rescheduled appointment because Dr, Nichols needs to leave early again. Just wasted two weeks! So unprofessional!
