How Texas Physician (MD) license verification works
A Physician (MD) in Texas is licensed by the TX Medical Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.
