Healthcare Recruiting · Cheyenne, WY
Physician, PA & NP recruiting in Cheyenne, grounded in the metro's real numbers.
We track the Cheyenne, WY area from federal data that updates every month, the same numbers we use when we take a search. Here is the current picture, and what it means if you are hiring.
Provider supply
Who practices in Cheyenne today
Individual providers with an active practice address in the Cheyenne, WY area, from the federal NPI registry (June 2026).
309
Physicians
170
Nurse practitioners
55
Physician assistants
Over the last 12 months, the Cheyenne metro added 9 newly enrolled nurse practitioners, 1 physicians, and 1 physician assistants to the registry. New NP enrollments outpaced new physicians: the advanced-practice workforce is growing faster than the physician base, and hiring plans that ignore that mix are competing for the scarcer pool.
