Ohio doctor license lookup.
The State Medical Board of Ohio licenses, regulates and disciplines physicians (M.D., D.O. and D.P.M.) and several other health professions in one board.
Important, up front: this is a guide, not a verification service. It links to the official register and never queries it for you. The live record on the official site is the only thing that confirms a licence.
How to check, step by step
- Open the State Medical Board of Ohio site and use its Search / For the Public section to research a licensed provider.
- Search for the physician and read the licence status and any action shown.
- Match the name and licence number against the person's own paperwork before relying on the result.
We did not find a public check-digit formula for Ohio licence numbers in the sources above, so there is nothing to validate offline: a number that looks right proves nothing until the regulator's record confirms it.
Official lookups
What to know
Who is covered
The Board lists these professions: physicians (MD, DO, DPM), physician assistants, massage therapists, radiologist assistants, respiratory care professionals, anesthesiologist assistants, genetic counselors, acupuncturists and dietitians.
One board for M.D. and D.O.
Ohio's State Medical Board licenses both M.D. and D.O. physicians, so a single board covers both.
Limits
This page links to the Board and does not run a search. We could not read the Board's licence search form itself when preparing this page, so use the Board's own site navigation to reach it.
