Expert Care for Auto and Work-Related Injuries in Pinellas County.

Dr. Stephen Nickse

Dr. Nickse has practiced in Pinellas County for over 25 years. He opened his own practice in 2001 in Seminole. Dr. Nickse was introduced to chiropractic at a young age. Very active and playing competitive soccer, he suffered an injury that kept him off the field. Regular medical treatment did not help for weeks and was ultimately told to stop playing. His mother took him to a chiropractor. In one session he immediately felt better than he had in a long time. He was able to return to the playing field the following weekend. And this is when his passion for chiropractic began. Dr. Nickse and his wife, Janet, have 3 wonderful children.
