Thanks. item() looks better than tolist().

I simplified the function:

def nanmedian(x, axis=0):
    x, axis = _chk_asarray(x,axis)
    if x.ndim == 0:
        return float(x.item())
    x = x.copy()
    x = np.apply_along_axis(_nanmedian,axis,x)
    if x.ndim == 0:
        x = float(x.item())
    return x
