About Dr. Rodney Sholty

Founder & Medical Director, APEX Precision Health PLLC

A career built in the places medicine is hardest

Dr. Rodney Sholty is a board-certified family physician whose career spans more than three decades of care in underserved and resource-limited settings — from rural critical-access hospitals to federal Indian reservations to correctional medicine.

He completed a dedicated Rural Medicine Residency through the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Department of Family Medicine (2015–2018), serving as Chief Resident and training hands-on at Humboldt General Hospital in rural Winnemucca, Nevada — experience that shaped APEX's approach to high-acuity care in low-resource environments.

A service-disabled veteran, Dr. Sholty brings military discipline and mission focus to civilian medicine: resilient systems, precise protocols, and care that shows up when and where it's needed.

The Practice

About APEX Precision Health PLLC

Formed in 2026, APEX Precision Health is a Texas professional limited liability company fully owned by licensed physicians and certified as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). The practice operates Ascent Medical Clinic and Dive with a Doc, and partners with rural Texas hospitals to provide physician-led emergency and hospitalist coverage.

Physician-Owned

Every clinical decision is made by licensed physicians, in full compliance with Texas's Corporate Practice of Medicine doctrine. No outside investors influence patient care.

SDVOSB-Certified

Certification as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business qualifies APEX for federal and state contracting preferences — an advantage we pass on to partner hospitals as savings.

Rural Mission

Texas has lost more rural hospitals than any other state. APEX exists to reverse that trend with sustainable, physician-led staffing built for rural realities.
