In addition, he offers Carticel implants, autologous cultured chondrocyte and DeNovo cartilage implants and injections with platelet-rich plasma. Dr. Nemickas grew up in a medical family – his father and uncle were cardiologists, and his mother and aunt were nurses. Watching them help patients get well and seeing the patients’ gratitude inspired him to become a physician himself.

In providing care, Dr. Nemickas combines his knowledge of the latest proven technology and treatments with empathy gained from his own experience being treated for a severe ankle fracture in college. His patients are always treated individually, customizing their treatment plan to address their personal as well as medical needs.
