Many medical associations and state boards have online directories of physicians that you can search. As a plan member of a health and managed care organization, you can access local doctors by specialty. And your local yellow pages will list doctors, dentists and other medical professionals as well. If you want to find new clients, listed below are examples of the types of websites that can help you target self-employed physicians in your community:

Psychiatrists

Psychiatrists and other specialties: www.healthgrades.com allows you to search by location — state and city — and provides you a list of specialists in your town.

Radiologists

Society of Interventional Radiology: www.sirweb.org — provides a list of specialists by state with contact information.

Anesthesiologists

Professionals who are not hired directly by consumers are less likely to be listed on the Internet but you can identify some prospects through their professional associations and journals. For example, "Anesthesia and Analgesics", lists the members of the Editorial Boards, many of whom practice as well as teach: http://www.anesthesia-analgesia.org/misc/edboard.shtml . Find practitioners in your area and send them a personal email or give them a call.

Another approach is to find specialists at nearby teaching hospitals and universities — many physicians who teach are also practitioners. Here are a couple of examples:

• Anesthesiologists from Illinois's Rush University Medical Center with contact information easily found on the web http://rush.photobooks.com/pdf_results/rush_3.pdf


• A mix of specialists at New York Hospital for Special Surgery: http://www.hss.edu/physicians.asp

Endodontists

Easy to find in your town and state, most of them are in small practices:
