United Regional is proud to support community health through its annual flu shot initiative. Each year, we provide free flu vaccines to approximately 300 seniors in our region, helping reduce the risk of flu-related complications among one of our most vulnerable populations. This effort reflects our commitment to accessible preventive care and our belief that everyone deserves protection against seasonal illness. By removing barriers to access, we ensure that seniors can receive their flu shots safely, efficiently, and with dignity.

Join us in welcoming Dr. Jordan Teel to URPG! Dr. Teel is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine and hip preservation. She is specially trained in hip arthroscopy, a minimally invasive technique used to treat injuries in and around the hip joint, which can delay or prevent the need for hip replacement surgery.
Earning her undergraduate degree from Baylor University in Waco, TX, Dr. Teel went on to attend Texas A&M University College of Medicine in College Station, TX, followed by a residency in orthopedic surgery at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, TX. Dr. Teel then pursued a fellowship in sports medicine at the world-renowned Steadman Clinic in Vail, CO.
Her goal is to guide patients through recovery with clarity and compassion, helping them regain confidence and return to the activities that matter most. Dr. Teel will begin practicing on September 15. https://youtu.be/apBYQqzKzIE

United Regional is honored to support Peyton’s Project, a nonprofit organization founded in memory of Peyton Alexandra Hood, who tragically lost her life to a rattlesnake bite in 2010. From this heartbreaking event emerged a powerful mission: to raise awareness about the dangers of venomous snakes and ensure that lifesaving antivenom is available in rural communities across the Texoma region.

Through our partnership, United Regional and nine surrounding rural hospitals work together to make sure these facilities are equipped with enough antivenom to begin treatment immediately, buying critical time until patients can be transferred to United Regional for further care. This collaboration is saving lives and strengthening emergency response in our region.

We are proud to stand with Peyton’s Project in their mission to educate and protect our community. Thank you for an amazing event and for the important work you do.
