How to read this directory

Brooklyn, New York appears in the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System with 64,057 registered healthcare providers spanning 25 or more distinct NUCC-taxonomy specialties. This count includes every individual clinician who has applied for an NPI and listed a practice address in Brooklyn - physicians, dentists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, chiropractors, physical therapists, optometrists, psychologists, podiatrists, and every other credentialed provider type CMS tracks. It does not measure hospital beds, urgent-care capacity, or whether a given clinic is accepting new patients; it measures the pool of professionals with current NPI enrollment and a Brooklyn practice location on file. Every figure is drawn from the federal National Provider Identifier Registry (CMS NPPES) - more than 7 million providers, maintained since May 2007, with 2024 Medicare Part D data, and, according to CMS, can be searched, compared, and traced in our methodology.

The provider mix in Brooklyn is weighted toward Specialist (5,700 clinicians, followed by Student in an Organized Health Care Education/Training Program with 4,987 and Social Worker with 3,662). That distribution reflects how NPPES records specialty: providers self-select a primary taxonomy code, so a family physician who also practices geriatrics will show up under whichever NUCC code they registered first. Relative to New York's population, Brooklyn reports roughly 327.3 providers per 100,000 residents using the state-level denominator, which is a rough proxy rather than a precise access-to-care measurement; the true catchment area of any {cityName} clinician extends beyond the municipal boundary.

For Brooklyn patients, this directory is most useful as a starting shortlist. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available CMS government data, not a review site, a ranking, or medical advice. NPPES data is self-reported and refreshed monthly; call the practice directly to confirm the provider is still there, accepts your insurance, and is taking new patients.

For informational purposes only; this directory is not medical advice and not a substitute for checking a license. See also: how to find a doctor and how to verify one.
