Claim provider profile
Healthgrades
A clinician can claim a free Healthgrades profile and correct the information patients use when choosing a provider.
Why it matters
Patients researching an individual clinician can use the profile to check specialties and practice locations. Prioritize it when a clinician changes offices or patients still see an old number.
Step by step
Find the clinician
Use the Healthgrades professional portal to search for the individual clinician. Match the specialty and location. Use the NPI search option if the portal offers it.
Claim and verify
Choose the matching profile. Register or sign in and complete the verification Healthgrades requests. The portal can require a DEA or state license number.
Review professional details
Check the name, credentials, specialty, practice addresses and appointment contact information. Use the portal's support option if you cannot find or access the correct profile.
Check the result
Open the clinician's public profile and compare it with the practice website. Check every displayed address and contact number.
