Rural Montana communities struggle to find physicians

Dr. Robert Elsbury was like a dream come true for the Custer County Community Health Center.

Elsbury, 40, was an avid outdoorsman who had worked in other small towns and adjusted easily to life in Miles City.

It took health officials seven months to find and recruit Elsbury, who grew up in Illinois and worked in Chicago before moving to Montana.

Elsbury was killed almost two weeks ago in an auto accident, barely a year after taking over as the only physician at Custer County Community Health Center.
