Bryan Scheer, M.D.
Chairman of the Board & Co-Founder
Dr. Bryan Scheer co-founded Rural Partners in Medicine in 2010 after being frustrated with the traditional “outreach” model. He felt there he could safely perform most of his orthopedic cases in Critical Access Hospitals, so he pushed back against the model, contracting with individual hospitals to keep patients and revenue local. Quickly, the demand became larger than what he could supply, so he started recruiting fellow orthopedic surgeons to help.
Since that time, he has worked closely with our hospital partners to hear the needs of their community and grow their service offerings. He is constantly innovating new ways to solve the inequities in rural health care by making specialty care all in reach.
After receiving his medical degree at the University of Nevada and orthopedic training at the University of Oklahoma, Dr. Scheer moved to Scottsbluff, NE. During his time in the Scottsbluff he started and managed a busy orthopedic practice, was a founding member and managing partner of a vibrant surgery center, was the President of the County Medical Society and was medical director of the hospital’s physical therapy department. In addition to being board certified and holding specialty certification by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery, Dr. Scheer has been regularly distinguished by his patients as well as peers and has taught at the clinical professor level.
