[Effingham, Illinois – July 15, 2025] — Vantage Surgical Solutions is pleased to announce the addition of Brad Felger as Surgical Sales Representative for the state of Nebraska. Reporting to Bec Söll, Regional Vice President of Sales, Brad joins Vantage with a long-standing reputation as a trusted advisor to organizations navigating complexity and change—particularly in rural and resource-constrained environments.

As Surgical Sales Representative, Brad plays a key role in helping hospitals and surgery centers across Nebraska expand access to specialty surgical care, strengthen service lines, and serve more patients close to home through Vantage’s turnkey surgical programs.

A Grounded, Purpose-Driven Approach to Hospital Partnerships
Brad brings a unique blend of real-world business acumen and deep empathy to his role at Vantage. As a business consultant, he has spent years guiding small and mid-sized organizations—many on the verge of closing—through complex operational and financial challenges. His work spans multiple industries including healthcare, distribution, and manufacturing, but the common thread has always been service: helping leaders make confident decisions, fix what’s broken, and build something that lasts.

Now, Brad brings that same mindset to Nebraska hospitals. He understands the realities rural providers face—workforce shortages, limited capital, complex reimbursement—and sees opportunity in helping them grow strategically without overextending resources. Learn more about what Vantage is doing to help Nebraska hospitals achieve a healthier bottom line.

“Brad is exactly the kind of leader we want representing Vantage,” said Bec Söll, RVP of Sales. “He listens, he learns, and he partners. He brings both the business lens and the heart of someone who truly wants to see our hospital clients succeed long-term.”

Helping Nebraska Hospitals Do More with Less
Brad’s approach goes beyond products or programs—he’s focused on sustainable, relationship-based growth. He works side-by-side with hospital executives and surgical teams to understand their specific goals and constraints, then tailors solutions that help them maximize existing assets, such as underutilized ORs, and launch or expand specialty services like ophthalmology or endoscopy.

He’s especially passionate about working with Critical Access Hospitals and rural health systems, where a single added service line can mean hundreds of patients receiving care locally—and greater financial stability for the entire organization. Connect with Brad on LinkedIn. 

“I’ve always believed in meeting people where they are and building from there,” said Felger. “Hospitals aren’t just businesses—they’re anchors in their communities. I’m honored to support the providers who keep them running.”
