population 3,681
8 licensed providers are registered in Valdez — about 21.7 for every 10,000 residents.
With a population of 3,681, that works out to 21.7 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.
Valdez is the 34th largest concentration in Alaska by number of providers, accounting for 0.1% of the state total.
The largest single group is mental health counselor, at 2 providers or 25% of the total. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training and scope, so the mix here partly reflects how Alaska licenses its providers.
5 distinct licence types are registered here. The letters after a provider's name describe their training route rather than a ranking, and several of them do substantially overlapping work.
8 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: 6,968 licensed providers are registered across Alaska, 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.
