About Robert W. Norris, MD

  • Dr. Norris currently has long wait times for new patients. Please see below for physicians and advanced practice clinicians (APCs) he recommends to new patients wanting to transfer or establish care at ARC.

    If Dr. Norris is your primary care physician, please book your appointment via your ARC MyChart account or call 512-ARC-INFO (512-272-4636).


    Dr. Norris is married and has a son and a daughter. His wife is active in the Travis County Medical Alliance, and they both enjoy family activities, especially outdoors. Dr. Norris also enjoys the Austin music scene and dancing.

I believe that listening is probably the most important skill a doctor needs to have.
