Pull live physician profiles from Doximity, the largest US medical professional network with 80%+ of U.S. doctors registered. The actor accepts a specialty plus optional state (or a direct URL), walks the directory pages, and returns one structured record per physician ready for healthcare recruiting, medical-affairs research, lead-gen, or KOL identification.

Every run fetches data live so you get the current state of Doximity at run time. Records include the physician name, specialty, education (medical school, residency, fellowship), hospital affiliations, board certifications, publications, professional memberships, and a back-reference URL.

📋 What the Doximity Scraper does

• 🩺 Specialty filter. 30+ medical specialties from cardiology to urology.
• 🌎 State filter. Narrow by US state.
• 🔗 Direct URL. Pass a Doximity directory URL.
• 🎓 Education. Medical school, residency, fellowship.
• 🏥 Hospital affiliations. All affiliated hospitals listed.
• 📚 Publications. Publication count and titles where exposed.

The scraper walks Doximity's directory, extracts each profile's metadata, and pushes structured records to the dataset.

💡 Why it matters: Doximity is the canonical US physician network with comprehensive credentials data, but its UI is paginated and lacks bulk export. A live, structured pull beats manual lookup for recruiting, KOL identification, and medical-affairs research.
