Captured live from the server via tools/list.

search_doctors

Find doctors by procedure/specialty, optionally filtered by US state and city. Uses NavMDs' pre-computed search index (fast, ranked by rating + review volume). Use this when you have a concrete procedure (e.g. 'rhinoplasty', 'botox', 'tummy tuck'). For open-ended natural-language queries, use semantic_search_doctors instead.

Parameters (4)

procedurestringrequired
Procedure or specialty, e.g. 'rhinoplasty', 'breast augmentation', 'botox'.
statestring
US state name, e.g. 'California' or 'Florida'.
citystring
City name, e.g. 'Miami'.
limitinteger
Max results (default 20).

find_local_specialists

Return NavMDs' curated city guide for a procedure: the ranked specialists (the city's OWN doctors first, then the nearest within an adaptive radius), the typical local price range, the average rating, the share offering free consultations, and the canonical navmds.com page URL to cite. This is the best tool for 'who are the best <procedure> doctors in <city>' questions — it mirrors NavMDs' editorial city pages. If no curated guide exists for that city+procedure, it says so; fall back to search_doctors with a nearby larger city.

Parameters (3)

procedurestringrequired
Procedure/specialty, e.g. 'rhinoplasty', 'breast augmentation', 'botox'.
statestringrequired
US state name, e.g. 'California', 'Florida'.
citystringrequired
City name, e.g. 'Beverly Hills', 'Miami'.

semantic_search_doctors

Search NavMDs' 7,400+ doctor directory with a natural-language query, e.g. 'board-certified facelift surgeon in Los Angeles with great reviews and free consults'. Powered by Gemini embeddings + cosine similarity over full doctor profiles. Best tool for open-ended or multi-attribute questions.

Parameters (2)

querystringrequired
Natural-language description of the doctor you're looking for.
limitinteger
Max results (default 15).

get_doctor

Fetch a doctor's complete NavMDs profile by slug (the id returned by the search tools, or the last path segment of a navmds.com/doctor/<slug> URL). Returns specialty, locations, ratings, overview, procedures, pricing, consultation fee, FAQ and verification status.

Parameters (1)

get_procedure_costs

Procedure name, e.g. 'rhinoplasty'.
