Benjamin I. Panter, M.D.

Dr. Benjamin Panter makes every effort to keep his patients informed. His goal is to focus on improving quality of life and longevity while providing patients a basic understanding of their distinctive situation. Dr. Panter knows too well what it feels like to be faced with orthopedic issues. As a talented student-athlete, he incurred a variety of injuries. He believes his personal involvement on the 'patient side' due to sports injury increased his awareness of the patient experience, which contributed to a more sympathetic perspective when working with patients as a physician. Dr. Panter was raised in Stillwell, Oklahoma and knew at a young age he wished to be a doctor. He vividly remembers watching his father's ACL surgery video over and over again. His areas of interest include Sports Medicine and Orthopedic Trauma, but he treats various orthopedic needs, with the exception of necks and backs. Dr. Panter is a proud member of the 2000 OU National Championship Football Team and serves as Team Physician for OU Soccer and Tennis. In his spare time, he follows OU Football, enjoys golf and spending quality time with his family.
