Use the name behind the consultation and the public record held by the relevant medical board.
Check the state connected to the visit
Let the service know the location you expect to join the appointment from. If travel changes that location, ask the service to check what it means for the visit.
Look up a doctor through the state board
Get the exact name
Ask for the doctor’s full professional name and the state licence details being used for the visit.
Find the relevant medical board
Open the medical-board directory below and choose the board for the state involved in your care.
Match the public record
Compare the name and licence details. Read the status and any public disciplinary information, and ask the board about anything unclear.
Know what the record can tell you
A clean public record means there is no public board action in that record; it is not a rating of a doctor’s care.
Some states keep doctors’ records in separate boards based on the type of medical degree; ask the board where to search.
Finish the care check
Keep the record details with the proposed care and fee breakdown. Next, ask for the pharmacy’s name and check its separate licence record. Ask about any mismatch before proceeding with the service.
