72nd of 111 places in ND
population 1,765
2 licensed therapists are registered in Oakes — about 11.3 for every 10,000 residents.
With a population of 1,765, that works out to 11.3 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.
Practically, a figure this far below the median means planning for a longer search. Widening the area you are willing to travel to, asking about video sessions anywhere in North Dakota, and looking at community clinics as well as private practice all tend to matter more here than they would in a large city.
Of the 111 places in North Dakota with at least one registered provider, Oakes ranks 72nd by count.
Just over half of the licensed therapists here — 50% — 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 North Dakota — 1,941 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.
