Tips for best results

  1. Use specific specialties: Target specific specialties for focused results
  2. Set realistic limits: Start with maxItems: 50 to test before large scrapes
  3. Skip what you don't need: Use skipReviews and skipAvailability to reduce costs
  4. Disable profile scraping: Set scrapeProfiles: false for quick, low-cost search-only results
  5. Control costs: Set maxItems to cap your spending

FAQ

Q: How do I limit the size of a run? A: Set maxItems. Each doctor, review or availability slot counts as one item.
