Physical & Occupational Therapy in Carthage, MS

There are 5 licensed therapists registered in Carthage. The two most common licence types are physical therapist (4) and occupational therapist (1).

Among the 134 places in Mississippi big enough for the comparison to hold — at least a thousand residents, and a resident population that matches who is registered there — Carthage ranks 98th by providers per resident.

That puts Carthage close to the middle for Mississippi. Expect to contact several providers rather than one, and to find that availability rather than choice is the binding constraint.

Of the 216 places in Mississippi with at least one registered provider, Carthage ranks 89th by count.

Just over half of the licensed therapists here — 80% — 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.

A count this small says more about the size of the place than about what you can reach. Two things widen it: providers elsewhere in Mississippi — 2,807 of them hold a registration — who may work remotely, and the towns listed further down this page. It is also worth knowing that the registry only records where someone filed an address, so a practice serving this area may appear under a neighbouring town instead.

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.
