Physical & Occupational Therapy in Buffalo, MN

51 licensed therapists are registered in Buffalo — about 30.2 for every 10,000 residents.

With a population of 16,878, that works out to 30.2 providers per 10,000 residents. Density is a rough measure: providers register a practice address, which may be a clinic serving a much wider area than the city itself.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Minnesota — though supply is not the same as availability. Plenty of providers in a well-served area are full, out of network, or private-pay only.

Of the 463 places in Minnesota with at least one registered provider, Buffalo ranks 61st by count.

By licence type the breakdown is physical therapist (26), occupational therapist (19), orthopedic physical therapist (2), hand occupational therapist (2), with 0 further types making up the remainder.

Just over half of the licensed therapists here — 53% — hold the same licence, physical therapist. Where one type dominates like this, the practical question is less which letters someone has than whether they work with what you are bringing to them.

One caveat on reading these numbers: the registry records where a provider registered an address, not where they see clients day to day, and addresses are not always kept current. It also says nothing about whether someone is taking new clients.
