Physical & Occupational Therapy in Poplarville, MS

20 licensed therapists are registered in Poplarville — about 68.5 for every 10,000 residents.

That is roughly 3.7 providers per square mile of land area, or 68.5 per 10,000 residents.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Mississippi — 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 216 places in Mississippi with at least one registered provider, Poplarville ranks 64th by count.

The largest single group is occupational therapist, at 10 providers or 50% 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.

Just over half of the licensed therapists here — 50% — hold the same licence, occupational 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.

20 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.

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.
