Dermatologist access in Arizona: about average

Arizona is close to average for dermatology access. The NPI registry has 420 dermatology providers practicing here, 5.8 per 100,000 residents next to 5.5 for the country, which ranks 18th of 51. Put another way, roughly 17,300 residents of Arizona share each one. At the national rate, Arizona's 7,268,175 residents would have about 403; it has 17 more.[NPI][ACS]

70% of those providers practice in the Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler area, leaving 30% for everywhere else in Arizona.[OMB][NPI]

Two of Arizona's four nearest states have more dermatology providers per resident (per 100,000: New Mexico 3.1, Nevada 3.2, California 6.2 and Utah 6.3).[NPI][ACS]

States of a similar size: Massachusetts (715 providers, 10.2 per 100,000), Tennessee (286 providers, 4.1 per 100,000) and Indiana (255 providers, 3.7 per 100,000).[NPI][ACS]

Far from the Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler area, a dermatology office may be a longer trip; an online intake for pattern hair loss is the same from any town in Arizona. Hair that falls out suddenly or in patches, or a scalp that is sore, red or scaly, is best seen by a dermatologist in person.

About the count: dermatology providers registered in the NPI registry (October 23, 2026), by practice location, without dermatopathologists, physician assistants or nurse practitioners. A registry is not a workforce survey, and ACS 2019–2023 population is the denominator.

After a baby: hair shedding in Arizona

In 2024, 78,711 babies were born to residents of Arizona, roughly 215 every day. The birth rate, 10.4 per 1,000 residents, was the 29th-highest (tied) of the 50 states and DC. Per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44 there were 53.2 births, the 32nd-highest fertility rate of 51. Birth rates in its nearest states: New Mexico 10.0, Nevada 9.9, California 10.2 and Utah 13.3.[NCHS]

Many new mothers notice heavy shedding a few months after giving birth. The American Academy of Dermatology says it usually peaks about four months after birth, is temporary and is not true hair loss, and that most women see their hair return to its normal fullness by their child’s first birthday.[1]

Thinning that outlasts the baby’s first year, or a part that keeps getting wider, is worth a physician’s look for female pattern hair loss. After breastfeeding ends, the options a physician may weigh are oral minoxidil, spironolactone, or a scalp spray mixed without finasteride (compounded, not FDA-approved). While you are pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, finasteride and spironolactone are off the table, and minoxidil tablets are not taken during breastfeeding.[2][3][4]

Who pattern hair loss affects in Arizona

Of Arizona's 7,268,175 residents, 1,409,266 are men aged 25 to 54, 38.8% of the state's men (39.7% nationally). In its nearest states the share is New Mexico 37.8%, Nevada 41.3%, California 42.0% and Utah 39.7%.[ACS]

1,096,151 women are 40 to 64, 30.1% of Arizona's women and below the national 31.5%: the midlife years when, the American Academy of Dermatology says, female pattern hair loss usually begins. In its nearest states, women 40 to 64 are New Mexico 30.4%, Nevada 31.7%, California 31.3% and Utah 26.8% of all women.[5][ACS]

Pattern hair loss can start as early as the teens and becomes more likely with age; across the US it affects an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women. There is no count by state, and this page does not guess one.[6]
