Elena Nicholson is extremely knowledgeable. She has a very intelligent way of understanding diabetes. She's very thorough and we just really appreciate how much she understands the disease and how much time she spends with us. She definitely seems to really care.

We LOVE Dr. Nicholson and all of our nurses. They build up my son's confidence so that when he leaves he is ready to face his diagnosis head on and never let it hold him back! We feel so blessed to have found Dr. Nicholson and her team. They answer all of our many questions and always make us feel prepared. They genuinely care about my son's interests and more than just his diabetes. They make sure he isn't missing out on anything that he wants to do due to his diagnosis. Everyone is so kind and knowledgeable!

Dr. Nicholson is phenomenal. Through the many challenges I've faced she's been there helping me become a better version of myself. She always has my best care in mind. She's phenomenal at what she does and is extremely knowledgeable in her field. When a problem arises she ALWAYS has a fix. She's a great educator and really values your opinion as a patient. Not only is she great at physical care, she is super personable. She loves to get to know me and my family. I would recommend her time and time again! Thank you Dr. Nicholson for all you do!

She has been an amazing provider from day 1! She has made a difficult transition so much easier with so much support. Highly recommended!!! Thank you Dr. Nicholson!

The Doctor and Nurse were very kind and gave me alot of very informative information which I'm so thankful for, because this is my first time being a parent and a first time parent with a child with Type 2 Diabetes. It can be quite intimidating without the knowledge and insight on how to handle things with a teenager that at one point in time was against change, now he's all for it. I'm so thankful for his village of professional care givers at Children's in Dayton

Dr. Nicholson is a wonderful person. She actually sits down and explains things for my son to understand. He's kind of delayed, I should say. She is wonderful. I like her a lot. All around a 10, a star, 10 star. There are all the nurses and people that call us in and everything. Everybody is very polite. Dr Nicholson is polite. I just love coming to children's because everyone is so nice and polite.
