If you look back on their history, you can easily see why they are so passionate about what we do. Sewn into the very fabric of Cheyenne Regional is a pioneering and steadfast determination to serve others—a quality that dates way back to 1867. That’s the year that they were founded as a frontier “tent” hospital, constructed by the Union Pacific Railroad to treat workers who were injured building the transcontinental railroad.

One year later, the founders of Cheyenne purchased the tent and all of its medical supplies for $125 and established what is now known as Cheyenne Regional. As time passed, their buildings grew, their name changed and generations have come and gone. Through it all, their pioneering spirit and determination to provide the highest quality of care has continued to lead and inspire healthcare excellence in the region.

When you come to Cheyenne Regional, passionate physicians, nurses and staff will be here to encourage you throughout the healing process—with confidence, compassion and a personal touch. They know their region better than any other healthcare system, and they are committed to providing you with the exceptional care you seek and deserve.

They offer a comprehensive line of healthcare services, including Cardiovascular, Cancer, Orthopedics, Neurosciences, Women and Children’s Services, Trauma, Wound Management & Hyperbaric Medicine, Rehabilitation, Home Care, Hospice, Behavioral Health, Medical Imaging and Lab Services.

Radiologists specialize in diagnosing and treating disease and injury, using medical imaging techniques such as x-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine, positron emission tomography (PET), fusion imaging, and ultrasound. Because some of these imaging techniques involve the use of radiation, and require training to understand radiation safety and protection.
