Dr. Nickolas Linkous, MD

Jordan on February 27 2025 was very helpful. She pushed my wheelchair up to the kiosk and entered my information for me. Then pushed me to the waiting area I needed to be at.

Dr. Linkous was straight forward from the beginning and never beat around the bush. He told it like it was and that honestly made it a more comforting situation. He answered all my questions and never second guessed what he or I knew needed to be done.

Six weeks after falling off a roof and recovering from broken ribs I began to realize something wasn’t right in my left arm. Dr. Linkous fit me into MRI testing 5am the next morning and by that afternoon in a follow up appointment I was informed that my pectoral major tendon had been completely torn off the bone. Dr. Linkous is very perceptive, patient, and fully answers questions including my full range of options. Dr. Linkous squeezed me into surgery within a few days. My entire surgical experience at ThedaCare Orthopedic Care Appleton was outstanding. I know Dr. Linkous does excellent work because I was off pain medication in 4 days and my recovery has been excellent. Physical therapy was coordinated which made everything convenient and simple for me to stay on track. I am very grateful to Dr. Linkous and the surgical team at ThedaCare for the excellent and timely care. If you need orthopedic surgery, you will not find better care and a more talented surgeon than Dr. Linkous.

Dr. Linkous and the staff at ThedaCare Orthopedic Care were fantastic. The new facilities in Appleton are top notch. Thanks for a great experience.

I had a severe meniscus injury and Dr Linkous was very thorough-he really listened to me and answered all my questions completely- great experience!All staff from MA to PT to RNs we’re all very compassionate and encouraging!

He has a wealth of knowledge. Knew just what my shoulder needed. Very willing to answer any questions l had. Having my other shoulder done this month

He listened to me and was able to provide a solution to my knee pain of several years after several prior treatments.

Dr. Linkous is very positive, kind, knowledgeable , and helpful.

Dr. Linkous did a great job of explaining the surgery options and details, possible complications, and recovery expectations. He is skilled, personable and thorough. His staff and the staff at OSP were very professional and helpful. They all worked together to get me back on my feet(literally.)

Dr. Linkous was the only light at the end of a long tunnel I've been traveling through. I am only in my 30s so I've felt a lot of doctors think I do not matter with my pain... Dr. Linkous was caring and offered me insight to help me navigate what I am experiencing. Numerous doctors that have been less than helpful, but Dr. Linkous and his nurse were considerate, thorough with helping me understand what I am experiencing and far more helpful than any of the numerous doctors I've seen... and I've seen a lot, too many. He gave me answers and offered me solutions with explanations that actually helped me understand what I am experiencing. He was quick to see me and made me feel like I matter, every other doctor I've had to see it is a long and drawn out waiting game of pain. Unfortunately, he is unable to help me right away but that is of no fault of his. I highly recommend Dr. Linkous, I do not expect anything less than a great surgery with him when that time comes.

Was very informative and personal. Would highly recommend him and would go back if wver needed.

Excellent surgeon, kept me and my family in the loop, recovery was much faster than anticipated. Would highly recommend.

Dr. Linkous came to the ER after my accident, and did a great job getting me stabilized until surgery could be performed. The surgery went great! After a few screws, pins, and stitches, I was on my way to recovery and physical therapy. Dr. Linkous communicated with me in terms I could understand during my follow up visits. He also made sure I had realistic expectations during my recovery period. Great job! I highly recommend Dr.Linkous!
