Cameron T. Nicholson, PA
Overview
I have been a physician assistant since 2017, but my journey toward medicine began long before that. As a Division II athlete and athletic training major in undergrad, I developed a deep appreciation for the human body and movement. Spending time in the athletic training room sparked my curiosity and passion for understanding injuries and recovery, ultimately leading me to pursue a career as a physician assistant. I specialize in orthopedic spine surgery and take pride in providing personalized, patient-centered care. I believe that inclusive care is essential, and I strive to create a welcoming environment where all patients feel respected, valued, and supported. My goal is to empower patients with the knowledge they need to make confident decisions about their health and recovery. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active through cycling, hiking, and competing in sports on the weekends. I also love traveling the world, seeking new adventures, and exploring the outdoors.

I have more than 25 years of experience treating patients of all ages with spinal disorders. I have had an interest in the management of spinal disorders since starting my medical education. I performed residencies in both orthopaedic surgery and neurosurgery to gain a comprehensive understanding of the entire range of spinal disorders. My goal has been to find innovative ways to manage the range of spinal conditions, straightforward to complex. I have a focus on managing patients with complex spinal disorders. My patient evaluation and management philosophy is to provide engaged, compassionate care that focuses on providing the simplest and least aggressive treatment option for a particular condition. In many cases, non-operative treatment options exist to improve a patient’s symptoms. I have been actively engaged in clinical research to find the best ways to manage spinal disorders in order to achieve better results with fewer complications.
