Robotic Surgery
Norman Regional’s Neurosurgeon – Dr. Clay Cochran – is specially trained to perform robotic-assisted neurosurgeries. Robotic surgery offers the surgeons more precision and the patients undergoing surgery less blood loss during surgery, less pain and a shorter recovery time.
Can I self-refer?
Patients can self-refer to our neurosurgeons, but it is recommended that patients first see their primary care physician, as they can do the imaging needed and find the root of the problem before treating the patient themselves or referring them to Neurosurgery Associates.
