Rodeo Doctor Transforms Lives Beyond the Arena

In October 2025, Teton Ridge Entertainment announced that it has secured the rights to adapt a Texas Monthly article titled "A Rodeo Doctor Fixes Much More Than Broken Bones" for television. The article profiles orthopedic surgeon Dr. Tandy Freeman, the medical director of the Professional Bull Riders and Justin Sportsmedicine team.

The upcoming TV project, which will be produced by Will Packer Media, is set to be a propulsive character-driven medical drama that delves into the unique challenges faced by an elite doctor working in the high-octane world of rodeo. Dr. Freeman will serve as a consultant on the series, providing insider knowledge and expertise.

"Through the work of this medical team, we're invited into the intersecting worlds of the high-stakes rodeo circuit, elite sports, and modern medicine," said Teton Ridge Entertainment president Jillian Share. "Seen through Tandy's perspective, we will journey past the grit and bravado of the cowboy community to uncover the profound relationships doctors forge with the sport's top athletes, through a blend of raw adrenaline and deep emotion."

The project is part of Teton Ridge Entertainment's mission to celebrate the spirit of the American West and bring these stories to a broader audience in modern, authentic ways.
