Overview

From same day surgeries, to minimally invasive surgeries, to more complex surgeries, our team of experts has you covered. Norman Regional makes your surgical experience easier by bringing everything together to one central location—registration, preadmission, presurgical assessments, diagnostic testing, patient education, the Ambulatory Care unit and 21 state-of-the-art operating rooms, two of which are fully dedicated to robotic surgery.  

Same Day Surgery

Norman Regional has Same Day Surgery units for procedures that do not require an overnight hospital stay. Our team of physicians, nurses and clinician strives for our patients to have a positive visit. Patients may meet with a registered nurse before surgery to answer any questions and gain information about the procedure and the patient’s history. Additional testing may be needed, and can be conveniently done within Norman Regional Hospital or at Norman Regional HealthPlex. There are dedicated waiting rooms for your family and friends to wait during your procedure.

Robotic Services

Get back to your family and everyday activities faster with robotic surgery at Norman Regional. Our team of highly trained robotic surgeons can treat a range of complex conditions. Robotically-assisted surgeries require only a few small incisions allowing patients to recover faster, with less pain and most importantly dramatically reducing the recovery time usually associated with surgery. Some procedures utilizing our da Vinci Surgical System are even performed through a single small incision. Norman Regional HealthPlex, located at Interstate 35 and Tecumseh Road in Norman, is home to our robotic surgery program.

Robotic surgery is an innovative alternative to open surgery and a highly useful tool for laparoscopic surgery.

Benefits include:

• Smaller incisions
• Less post-operative pain
• Shorter hospital stay
• Faster recovery time

Only you and your doctor can decide whether da Vinci Surgery may be right for you. Some symptoms and conditions that may require a hysterectomy or surgery include:

• Pelvic pain
• Abnormal bleeding
• Endometriosis
• Cancer
• Falling uterus or bladder
