Enriches each lead with emails and social media profiles via website crawl. - **URL**: https://apify.com/crawlerbros/dentist-lead-scraper.md - **Developed by:** [Crawler Bros](https://apify.com/crawlerbros) (community) - **Categories:** Lead generation, SEO tools, Other - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 8 bookmarks - **User rating**: 5.00 out of 5 stars ## Pricing from $1.00 / 1,000 results This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage. Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Dentist & Healthcare Lead Scraper Scrape **dentist, doctor, clinic, orthodontist, chiropractor, veterinarian, pharmacy, physical therapist, dermatologist, optometrist** (or any custom query) leads from Google Maps. Each lead is enriched with **email addresses** and **social media profiles** from the business's website. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `businessType` | enum | Dentist / Doctor / Clinic / Orthodontist / Chiropractor / Veterinarian / Pharmacy / Physical Therapist / Dermatologist / Optometrist / Custom | | `location` | string | City, state, or ZIP (e.g. "Austin, TX"). Required. | | `searchQuery` | string | Custom query used when businessType = "Custom". | | `maxResults` | integer | Max leads per run (1-500, default 50). | | `enrichEmails` | boolean | Visit each website to extract emails. Default on. | | `enrichSocials` | boolean | Extract social-profile URLs. Default on. | | `outputFormat` | enum | `full`, `hubspot`, `salesforce`. | | `language` | enum | Google Maps language (`en`, `es`, `fr`, `de`, `it`, `nl`, `pt`, `pl`, `ja`). | ### Output (full format) Per lead: `name`, `category`, `address`, `mapsUrl`, `phone`, `website`, `rating`, `reviewCount`, `placeId`, `cid`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `email`, `allEmails`, `socialLinks` (object with facebook / instagram / linkedin / twitter / youtube / tiktok), `businessType`, `scrapedAt`. **HubSpot format**: `company`, `address`, `phone`, `website`, `email`, `industry`, `hs_lead_status`, `hs_object_source`, `hs_latitude`, `hs_longitude`, `facebook_url`, `linkedin_url`, `instagram_url`, `twitter_url`. **Salesforce format**: `Company`, `Street`, `Phone`, `Website`, `Email`, `Industry`, `LeadSource`, `Latitude__c`, `Longitude__c`, `Facebook__c`, `LinkedIn__c`. ### How it works 1. Build the Google Maps search query from `businessType` + `location` (or custom). 2. Launch stealth Chromium and collect up to `maxResults` place cards (name, address, phone, rating, website, coordinates). 3. For each place with a website, crawl the homepage + common contact pages (`/contact`, `/about`) via `httpx` and extract `mailto:` emails, plain-text emails, and social profile links. 4. Normalise into the selected output format and push one record per lead. ### FAQ **Do I need a proxy?** No — the scraper tries direct first and auto-escalates to Apify RESIDENTIAL US if Google blocks the datacenter. **Why some leads have no email?** Not every business has an email on their website, and placeholder / `noreply@…` values are filtered out. # Actor input Schema ## `businessType` (type: `string`): Healthcare / service business type. When 'Custom', use searchQuery. ## `location` (type: `string`): City, state, or ZIP code (e.g. 'Austin, TX'). ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Used only when businessType = 'Custom'. Example: 'pediatric dentist'. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum leads per run. ## `enrichEmails` (type: `boolean`): Visit each business website to extract email addresses. ## `verifyEmails` (type: `boolean`): Check that each extracted email domain has a valid MX record (DNS lookup). Adds a small amount of runtime. ## `enrichSocials` (type: `boolean`): Extract Facebook / Instagram / LinkedIn / Twitter / YouTube / TikTok profile URLs from website. ## `outputFormat` (type: `string`): Record shape: full (all fields), hubspot (HubSpot-compatible), salesforce (Salesforce-compatible). ## `language` (type: `string`): Google Maps language code. ## Actor input object example ```json { "businessType": "Dentist", "location": "Austin, TX", "maxResults": 3, "enrichEmails": true, "verifyEmails": false, "enrichSocials": true, "outputFormat": "full", "language": "en" } ```` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "businessType": "Dentist", "location": "Austin, TX", "maxResults": 3 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("crawlerbros/dentist-lead-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
