Find a doctor

Find a doctor anywhere in the United States by specialty, name, city, county, state or ZIP code. Our directory covers every physician (MD and DO), nurse practitioner, physician assistant, dentist, therapist and other clinician with an active National Provider Identifier and a U.S. practice address. It is updated from the CMS NPI Registry.

How to find a doctor near you

First, type a specialty, a name or both. Then add a city, ZIP code or state. For example, “cardiologist Denver” or “Smith 10025” both work. You can also filter by role: physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, or other clinicians. In addition, you can limit results to one hospital or one medical group. The results come with a map, so you can see where the matches practice.

What each doctor’s page shows

• Practice address and phone number, with a map.
• Primary and secondary specialties, medical school and graduation year.
• State license numbers and, in some states, the date of the first license.
• The hospitals and medical groups they work with.
• Medicare services they provide and drugs they prescribe.
• Payments from drug and device companies, and Medicare opt-out or exclusion status.

Before you choose a doctor

Our pages summarize public records, so they can be out of date. Therefore, always confirm a license with the state medical board. Likewise, confirm board certification with the certifying board. Also call the office to check that the doctor accepts your insurance and is taking new patients.

You can look up any clinician in the official NPI Registry (opens in a new tab) as well. To learn more, read what an NPI number is and which states publish license data, or browse doctors by specialty and hospital.

Questions about how to find a doctor

Is it free to find a doctor here? Yes. There is no account and no fee. We do not rank doctors, and no doctor can pay to be listed or placed higher.

Why can’t I find my doctor? First, try the last name only, then add the state. Some clinicians practice under a group name, so you can also search for their hospital or medical group. If a listing is wrong, please contact us.
