Counts are computed from the NPPES NPI Registry fields stored for the 72,892 doctor profiles in this directory (built 2026-10-08). They describe this directory only, not every clinician licensed in the state. Source: NPPES NPI Registry (CMS).

How do I check an ophthalmology doctor's license in Mississippi?

Search the doctor's name in the Mississippi State Board of Medical Licensure license lookup to confirm an active license and see any public disciplinary actions. Then enter the NPI number from the doctor's profile in the NPPES NPI Registry to confirm the credential, specialty taxonomy and practice address on file. Board certification in Ophthalmology is checked separately through the certifying board, for example the ABMS Certification Matters search.

What should I check before choosing an ophthalmology doctor?

Before you book an ophthalmology doctor, check whether the practice is in your health plan's network (call the number on your insurance card), whether your plan needs a referral from a primary care doctor, the doctor's license status through the Mississippi State Board of Medical Licensure, and board certification through the ABMS Certification Matters search. If you have Medicare, Medicare's Care Compare tool lets you search doctors and clinicians enrolled in Medicare. The Doctor Directory does not rate or rank doctors and does not give medical advice, so ask your own doctor which kind of specialist you need.

No. Listings are built only from NPI Registry fields (name, credential, NPI number, specialty taxonomy and practice city), and doctors are shown in alphabetical order. The Doctor Directory shows no star scores, review counts or "top doctor" labels, because it has no verified source for them. Use the license lookup and board certification search to check a doctor, and ask your own doctor for a referral.

Is it free to contact an ophthalmology doctor in Mississippi through The Doctor Directory?

Yes. Searching, viewing profiles and sending a consultation request are free for patients. The request goes through the form on the doctor's profile, and the practice decides whether it can schedule you. The Doctor Directory is a listing service and does not provide medical care or medical advice, so call 911 or go to an emergency room for urgent symptoms.
