Dr. George A. Nicola
Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeon

Dr. Nicola is Idaho’s premier knee specialist, offering the best surgical and non-surgical treatments for chronic knee pain in the Treasure Valley and Boise.

Dr. Nicola specializes in young adult sports injuries, but treats active patients in all age groups. He specializes in an array of techniques from rehab to reconstruction due to sports injuries, joint preservation techniques to maintain activity levels in younger arthritic individuals, to quad-sparing knee joint replacements.

His Rapid Recovery program for outpatient total knee resurfacing/replacement and his new minimally invasive Subchondroplasty procedure help separate Dr. Nicola from other knee specialists. He is an expert in computerized navigation for knee surgeries.

If you are in good physical shape and athletic, Dr. Nicola can get you back in the game quicker and with more long-term success.

In his spare time, Dr. Nicola enjoys classic cars, fishing, sports, snow sports, hiking and traveling, all of which he enjoys most with family and his wife, Judy.
