There are 6 licensed therapists registered in Diamondhead. The two most common licence types are physical therapist (4) and pediatric physical therapist (1).

With a population of 9,441, that works out to 6.4 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.

Density is the closest public proxy for how hard it will be to get an appointment, but it is only a proxy. It counts everyone with a registered address here, including people who have retired, moved or stopped taking new clients — nothing forces those records to be updated. Read it as a cautionary upper bound rather than a promise.

Diamondhead is the 73rd largest concentration in Mississippi by number of providers, accounting for 0.2% of the state total.

The largest single group is physical therapist, at 4 providers or 67% of the total. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training and scope, so the mix here partly reflects how Mississippi licenses its providers.

The mix here is unusually concentrated: physical therapist outnumber the next largest group by more than three to one. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training, so a lopsided mix usually says more about how Mississippi licenses its providers than about what is available to you.

6 is a small enough number that availability, not choice, will decide how quickly you are seen. Licences are issued at state level, so the practical pool is usually wider than this page shows: 2,807 licensed therapists are registered across Mississippi, and many practices now offer appointments by video. The towns listed further down are the next places to look.

These counts come from the federal NPI registry. A provider appears here if they hold an active NPI with a practice address in this area — it does not mean they are currently accepting new clients, and the registry does not record insurance, fees or availability.
