1 licensed providers are registered in Sturgeon Lake — about 21.6 for every 10,000 residents.
With a population of 464, that works out to 21.6 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.
Sturgeon Lake is the 452nd largest concentration in Minnesota by number of providers, accounting for under 0.1% of the state total.
With only one provider registered locally, most people here will be looking beyond the town. Licences are issued at state level, so a provider anywhere in Minnesota can generally see you by video — which makes the statewide figure the more useful one: 26,784 licensed providers are registered across Minnesota. Asking specifically whether a practice takes remote appointments is usually the fastest way to widen the search.
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.
