About Dr. Meghan Scheibe, MD
Updated Sep 20, 2026 · next review Dec 19, 2026Dr. Meghan Scheibe is a rheumatologist at Sanford Southpointe Clinic in Fargo, North Dakota. She treats autoimmune conditions, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus (SLE), and vasculitis.
She earned her medical degree at Creighton University School of Medicine, completed an internal medicine residency at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco, and finished a rheumatology fellowship at the University of Minnesota. She is board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine in both internal medicine and rheumatology.
In 2025 she was a co-author of a peer-reviewed article in the European Journal of Rheumatology about how doctors put the 2022 American College of Rheumatology guidelines on exercise, rehabilitation, diet, and other integrative care into practice for rheumatoid arthritis. The study reported no financial support. Her Sanford biography describes a focus on long-term relationships with patients and working with them to understand their illness and set treatment plans.
Federal Open Payments records list $149.43 in industry payments to her across 6 records from 2021 to 2025, from companies including Janssen Biotech, Horizon Therapeutics, AstraZeneca, AbbVie, and GlaxoSmithKline. Payments from drug and device makers are common and legal; this amount is small.

Worth knowing
- No license discipline was found, and her name does not appear in the North Dakota Board of Medicine's posted board orders. However, the board's license verification tool requires a per-person lookup that was not completed, so patients may want to verify her current license status directly. ndbom.org
- No malpractice suits, other lawsuits, or criminal matters were found in public searches. Such records are often not indexed online, so this means not found rather than confirmed absent. ndbom.org
- Hospital affiliations listed by commercial directories (such as WebMD, Healthgrades, and Sharecare) were not confirmed by a primary source and should be treated as unverified. healthgrades.com

A word of caution about these numbers
A payment does not mean your doctor is compromised or acting unethically. Most of these entries are drug samples left for patients, or lunch brought in for the office staff, and the amounts are usually small. Research funding and speaking at medical meetings are also normal parts of a clinical career.
As a rough guide, a total under $15,000 a year is usually not a concern. Much larger sums, especially from one company whose product your doctor recommends to you, are worth asking about. You are allowed to ask.
