How is the data for the WebMD Physician Directory compiled? Is it reliable?
The WebMD Physician Directory is compiled by The Little Blue Bookâ˘, a WebMD company. The award-winning Little Blue Book is a printed physician directory that has been used by physicians themselves for over 18 years to contact other doctors. It is well-known in the medical industry for its accurate, up-to-date physician information. The data on each physician that WebMD presents is confirmed with each physician’s office twice a year. While addresses and phone numbers and specialties tend to stay the same, some practice information can change quickly. For example, a physician may join or leave the practice or the practice may start accepting a new health insurance. In general, the data in this directory is generally reliable but to be 100% sure, always contact that doctor’s office.
