population 778
Tellico Plains has 5 licensed therapists with a registered practice address, across 2 licence types.
That is roughly 2.6 providers per square mile of land area, or 64.3 per 10,000 residents.
A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Tennessee — 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 314 places in Tennessee with at least one registered provider, Tellico Plains ranks 143rd 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 Tennessee — 8,391 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.
