**Category:** Healthcare | **Website:** [www.healthgrades.com/usearch](https://www.healthgrades.com/usearch) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/e02d71d3-f3f1-4f44-9519-15138ac33cda/healthgrades-com-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/e02d71d3-f3f1-4f44-9519-15138ac33cda/healthgrades-com-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/healthgrades/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get doctor details

Get detailed information about a specific doctor or healthcare provider. Requires the provider_url path from search results (e.g. '/physician/dr-noel-smith-xk82g'). Returns comprehensive profile data including education, office locations, ratings, biography, and more.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `provider_url` | string | Yes | Provider profile URL path from search_doctors results (e.g. '/physician/dr-noel-smith-xk82g'). The profile_url field from search results can be passed directly. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/healthgrades/get-doctor-details \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"provider_url":"<string>"}'
```

### Search doctors

Search for doctors and healthcare professionals by keyword (name, condition, or specialty) and location (city/state or zip). Returns paginated results with up to 20 providers per page, including name, specialty, rating, address, and profile URL. Use 'page' to paginate through results; the response includes total_count and total_pages for navigation.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `keyword` | string | Yes | Search term: doctor name, condition, or specialty (e.g. 'Smith', 'Family Medicine', 'cardiologist'). |
| `location` | string | Yes | Location to search near: city and state (e.g. 'New York, NY') or zip code. |
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for pagination (1-based). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/healthgrades/search-doctors \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
