Neurosurgical Care for Bartlesville's Energy Community
Bartlesville has been the heart of Oklahoma's oil industry since the state's earliest petroleum era. Today, the energy sector workforce — along with manufacturing and service industry employees — represents a significant share of workers who sustain work-related spine injuries requiring specialist evaluation.
For complex neurosurgical cases, Bartlesville patients have two primary options: travel through Tulsa to reach Oklahoma City, or access Tulsa's neurosurgical programs. For patients and case managers who want the depth of Oklahoma's largest independent neurosurgical practice — with seven fellowship-trained surgeons and 75+ years of institutional expertise — the additional drive to Oklahoma City is consistently worthwhile.
We schedule Bartlesville patients with efficiency in mind, coordinating imaging review and follow-up appointments to reduce the number of separate trips whenever possible.

Bartlesville & Washington County Workers' Comp Cases

We deliver timely evaluations, comprehensive functional assessments, and documentation that meets Oklahoma Workers' Compensation Commission standards. Our physicians are experienced with ODG and have presented at workers' comp seminars across the state.
From Bartlesville, take US-75 South through Tulsa, then I-44 West (Turner Turnpike) into Oklahoma City — approximately 115 miles, typically 2 hours. Our office at 14100 Parkway Commons Dr, Suite 100 is in northwest OKC. Call ahead and we'll coordinate your records and imaging so your visit is as efficient as possible.
Why travel to OKC rather than use Tulsa neurosurgeons for Bartlesville patients?▼
Tulsa does have neurosurgical programs, and for some patients that is the right choice. However, Neuroscience Specialists is Oklahoma's largest independent neurosurgical practice with seven fellowship-trained surgeons and a 75+ year history of institutional expertise. For complex spine conditions, workers' compensation cases, or situations where subspecialty depth matters, many Bartlesville patients and case managers choose our Oklahoma City practice.
Do you accept workers' comp referrals from Washington County employers?▼
Yes. We accept workers' compensation referrals from Washington County and throughout northeast Oklahoma. We have worked within Oklahoma's workers' comp system for over 35 years and are familiar with the processes and documentation requirements that adjusters and case managers depend on.
Can you minimize the number of trips from Bartlesville to OKC?▼
Yes. We coordinate imaging review, consultation, and follow-up scheduling to reduce trips whenever possible. Call our office at (405) 748-3300 before your first visit so we can ensure records and imaging are available, and we will work to consolidate your care into as few visits as your condition allows.
