About Dr. Nickolas Boutris

Dr. Boutris is a board certified Orthopedic Surgeon with additional Subspecialty Board Certification in Sports Medicine. His own experience as an athlete when he was younger fueled his desire to pursue a career in sports medicine. He has worked as a team physician from the high school to college and even professional levels, working in the past with the New York Jets and New York Islanders as part of their medical staff. He currently volunteers his time to serve local NW Houston area high schools in providing medical coverage for football games. He works with athletes and non-athletes alike to help return them to the activities they enjoy most

    I would recommend Dr. Boutris he is a really good physician and listens to the chief complaint of the patient. He is able to work with the patient and come up with a treatment plan.
  • Feb 24, 2026
    I recently had an appointment with Dr. Boutris, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. He was very attentive, knowledgeable, and took the time to thoroughly explain everything in a way that was easy to understand. I never felt rushed, and all of my questions were answered with patience and care. It's clear they truly care about their patients' well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Boutris to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled physician. I'm sad to hear such a huge loss on Houston Methodist but happy to follow wherever he goes!
