Boolean String Search To Find Physicians & Surgeons

[Dan R. Friesland]

I Boolean for Physician~Surgeon hard contact information to include CV particulars if available.  Any suggestions for peeling back the layers for successful mining?

Thank you,

You can also try this for LI profiles in Google:

site:www.linkedin.com md (physician | surgeon | doctor) (inurl:in | inurl:pub) -pub.dir

Gary's string is good, but it will also pull up some of what are called job title pages (e.g., http://www.linkedin.com/title/physician/in-us-724-San-Antonio,-Texa...) which include summaries of 5 profiles on the same page. You don't necessarily want that, because the keywords you include in your query may only appear in one of the various people displayed on title pages - or may be spread across multiple (e.g., one person has keyword x, another on the same page has keyword y). To avoid that, use this version which just generates  individual profile pages:

site:www.linkedin.com md (physician | surgeon | doctor) "search for people you know"

 

Re: contact info, you obviously don't get that from LinkedIn, but every medical organization's website lists their main phone (and often direct contact info for the physicians - look for the "Find a doctor" link) and somebody's email (the format is usually consistent across the company, so if you see someone's following the format [e-mail] then Dr. Jane Smith is [e-mail]) so you can at least try them at work.

Dan -

 

What Glen indicated in the results does happen, however if i have many pure profiles vs 'noise' in the results I leave the string as I indicated above. As for Glen's comment above, if you do get a lot of 'noise' or title pages, you can just add -inurl:title to the string I gave above - will eliminate those pages. Again, I usually do't use it unless I get a lot of title pages which rarely happens-

 

Thanks for the catch Glen!

 

Just shows there is no one perfect string, Dan!

Would that be with double "" Surgeons"" now that GOOGLE has changed their formatting ?

Thanks,
