WebMD Doctor Scraper - NPI, Ratings, Phones & Reviews

Scrape the WebMD physician directory (doctor.webmd.com) by specialty and location and get a rich, structured record for every healthcare provider: NPI, name and degrees, specialties, WebMD star rating and review counts, written patient reviews, biography, education, state licenses, conditions treated and procedures performed (with patient counts), accepted insurance plans, hospital affiliations, FAQs, and every practice location with phone, opening hours and geo-coordinates.

No login, no API key, no browser - the actor reads the provider data WebMD embeds in its own pages.

This actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by WebMD LLC.

Pricing

Pay per result: every provider record saved to the dataset is one billable result, and you are never charged for providers removed by your filters. The current price per result is shown on the actor's Pricing tab. A typical city + specialty search (for example cardiologists in Austin, TX - about 285 providers) costs only a few cents to a couple of dollars depending on how many providers you keep.

Tips

• City-level searches return the most precise lists; a whole state returns the state directory pages.
• Use maxResultsPerSearch to spread a budget evenly across many cities.
• Turn off includeProviderDetails when you only need names, NPIs, ratings and the nearest address.
