Search tips for Find a Provider

Different search options

When you use Allina.com's Find a Provider, take advantage of our many search options to find the doctor who is right for you.

  • Location: To find a nearby doctor, specify your location selecting your zip code or your city. The search will find doctors with practice in that zip code or city.
  • Specialty: If you are searching for a doctor with a particular specialty or expertise, such as family practice or dermatology, you can search by specialty. Click the down arrow next to "Specialty" to display all the specialties available. Then scroll through the list and highlight the specialty you want.
  • Last name: If you're looking for a particular doctor and know his or her last name, simply type the name into the space by "Last name."
  • Gender: If you prefer a doctor of a particular gender, simply select the circle next to Female or Male.

  • Language: If would like a doctor who speaks a particular language, such as Russian or Spanish, click the down arrow next to "Language" to display all the languages available in our directory. Then scroll through the list and highlight the language you want.

Too many results?

The easiest way to narrow your results is by using additional search options.

  • If you didn't pick any location, you may want to choose a city where you live or work. That way, it will be easier to get to your appointments.
  • If you chose a city, maybe you should try narrowing it to just your zip code or just those doctors in a specific specialty.

No results?

If you took advantage of all of your options, you may not get any results. If that is the case, you may want to prioritize.

Are you willing to travel a little to find a Spanish-speaking, female, OB/GYN? Or maybe gender isn't as important as the convenience of a nearby doctor. In any case, try broadening your search to surrounding cities or choosing fewer options.
