Schema.org for Medical Doctors (Physician)

SCHEMA PHYSICIAN VS PERSON

Schema for Physician is a branch of Local Business while Schema for Person is under Thing > Person.

I recently integrated Schema Markup for Physicians, and I had a difficulty trying to come up with  a validated Schema Markup on Google Structured Data Testing Tool. There are only few examples you can find on the web, so I decided to blog about how you can code https://schema.org/Physician. After many hours of trial and error markup testing, I was able to produce a code with you can refer below.

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Physician">

<span itemprop="name"><strong>Dr. Baloydi N. Lloydi, MD</strong></span><br>
