ALFRED BUXTON, PH.D., M.P. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Cognitive & Behavioral Psychologist provider holding PH.D., M.P. credentials at 155 HOSPITAL DR, LAFAYETTE, LA, 70503, with a listed phone of (337) 235-8304. NPI 1457474983 was issued on 04/09/2007. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BUXTON most recently submitted to CMS rather than a vetted directory listing, which is why patients should always confirm the practice is still at this location before scheduling.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 6,002 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 261 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.5 million in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count. These figures capture only Medicare Part D — commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy.

Cognitive & Behavioral Psychologist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,681 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 1,202 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. Inclusion here does not imply a recommendation, and absence of complaints or sanctions on this page does not mean none exist — always verify credentials through the NPPES NPI Registry, your state medical board, and the ABMS or AOA before making healthcare decisions.
