Nickel Obstetrics & Gynecology

He was recommended to me by my family doctor who I’ve seen for 20 years. Naturally I trusted his opinion and so glad I did. Dr. Nickel is simply amazing. He is truly compassionate and dedicated to his work. When I felt like I wasn’t getting enough time with the appointments he put everything down and sat there and talked with me. The only reason I felt that way though was because I was going through a recent trauma and just feeling really down. But the fact that he did that for me showed me how much he truly cares for his patients.
Unfortunately I went through two difficult situations but Dr. Nickel was there for me each time. He came to the hospital, talked with me, evaluated the baby and I. He made sure we were both okay and doing well. Him and his staff are very friendly and caring. They do their very best to make you feel welcomed and safe.
When the day finally came Dr. Nickel was sure to always stay in contact with the hospital staff to see how things were going and he really does try to make all his deliveries! He made it with perfect timing. Once he got there she was ready to come out. He made it seem so easy and I was watching through a mirror the whole time. Everything went smoothly and he got right to work making sure everything was okay.
Also don’t believe everything you hear about different procedures! I was skeptical about the vacuum suction but he took the time to explain everything and I truly trusted him. He would never do anything that he thinks would put you or the baby at risk. He respected my choice and never tried to sway me one way. We decided to try pushing a little more and well that’s all she needed and no suction had to be done. Had it been needed though I would have done it after hearing him explain it and just the level of care and respect he has for his patients.
I almost wish I was still pregnant just so I can still go to the office every week to see everyone haha!

Dr Nickel is the most amazing Dr my wife and I have dealt with. Having our 3^rd child next month and the process has been fantastic. Such a breath of fresh air to deal with a doctor who genuinely cares and will drop anything to ensure my wife is doing well. In the past we would go to a clinic and never knew who was going to be doing the visit. With doctor Nickel we know he’s the one we’re dealing with each time. He is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. It’s no surprise to us that he was rated the best doctor in western Washington last year. Thank you doctor Nickel!!!

Dr. Nickel is my first baby doctor & he has been a kind doctor who been very kind & understanding.
It is nice that his staff is kind too.

Not exactly sure why there are all these rave reviews. I came to this doctor’s office after reading these reviews, in hopes that I could find a new ob/​gyn after the passing of my last one.
Yea sure… the staff is friendly, just as they should be though. Nothing sticks out to me that makes this place any better than the next.
OB/​GYN doctors, ones that especially run their own office… and are the only doctor in the office, are very busy… yes…this I understand. There was one visit where I waited to be seen for 30 minutes. And each visit that I have had has been 5 minutes… except for my annual which was probably less than 10 minutes. Most places I have been to in the past, schedule an annual to take 45 – 60 minutes.
I guess maybe I am just used to a more thorough exam and actually getting to know a doctor that I am supposed to trust with my health.
Their equipment could also use some updating. I know this office has been around for some time… definitely could use some more modern and accurate scales, blood pressure monitoring systems etc.
Also the billing lady kept telling me my copay was a certain amount other than my true copay… even after showing her my copays listed on my insurance card… which was kind of frustrating when I just want to pay what I owe and not receive a bill in the mail.
I am not sure if this is just the healthcare industry now a days… but…I cant give five stars where five stars arent due.
Not saying that this is a bad office or doctor… but I personally like a doctor that takes their time and is more thorough. Maybe it would be different if I was a pregnant patient… I don’t know. I wanted to have a few appointments with this doctor before I wrote this review, mainly because I really wanted to like this place. This review has been written after 3 – 4 appointments. For a small, family ran/​owned place… I truly do expect a little better.

I was referred to DR Nickels after the passing of my Doctor DR Williams. It was only a week till my due date and I was scared to have someone different deliver my baby. I called the office and the receptionist was so kind and was able to schedule me right way. Dr Nickels took time to get to know me listened to me and was very comforting. All the office staff where amazing. He was there for my delivery and brought my beautiful little girl into the world. Thank you to Dr Nickels and his staff for making the traditions to his office in a emotional time smooth and comforting.

Dr. Adan Nickel is great! I was a surrogate for my sister and Dr. Nickel was great through out the whole process! The rooms were a little small for the crowd we had a each visit, but the caring we received was well worth it. We loved that Dr. Adam is the doctor you see each time and the doctor to deliver the baby (which can also mean a delay in your appointment if he is delivering a baby!) I went to a larger practice with my two children and I felt like I was more of a number.
I continue to go to Dr. Adam for my annual exams.

Dr. Nickel is amazing! Very personable and easy to talk to. I was so nervous about labor but he was really encouraging and I ended up doing better than I expected! He is definitely the doctor to see.

I loved my experience I had with Dr. Nickel and his office. He was my second doctor in my pregnancy. The first doctor was part of a large group and I felt like I was just another patient. My first doctor blew off my concerns I was having, I was very frustrated. Then the nurses at the hospital referred me to Dr. Nickel. The office is very quaint. He listened to, addressed, and supported my choices during my pregnancy and was available ²⁴⁄₇. I love the private practice experience and will be continuing my care with him.

Dr. Adam Nickel was an amazing OB. Very knowledgeable and professional in all that is OB and GYNO related. He was great with my two pregnancies. He took great care in my C-​sections and was very meticulous and skilled in surgery and after. The nurses at Tacoma General said the same thing that he takes great efforts in making sure baby is safe and that you heal and recover healthy.
Easy to talk to about any concerns or questions reguarding pregnancy and after.
Would go again with my other pregnancies.

I can’t thank Dr. Nickel enough for his support and care during my pregnancy and delivery! He’s very low key, so even when he was concerned about something I was never anxious or nervous. While it was a mostly normal pregnancy, towards the end there were some growth concerns and and induction was recommended. Dr. Nickel understood that my original goal was a natural, unmedicated birth and helped me try to get labor started before the induction. Even though it didn’t happen, once the induction started, he let me control how fast things went! Because he allowed me to listen to my body, I was able to give birth with minimal medication and have as close to the original birth experience that I wanted. The fact that he respected my wishes and didn’t push me means the world to me!
His staff is also awesome! Everyone is so friendly and quick to respond to questions. I think the only time I didn’t talk to sometime right away was when I called in with induction questions that I needed to talk to him about instead of a nurse, but that is to be expected since he’s in and out of patient visits, deliveries, etc!
If you are looking for a small office where they remember you, you are always seen by the same person, and the doctor takes the time to listen, discuss and provide great advice, then this a place for you!
