Georgia recorded 5 physician deactivations in this week’s NPI registry update, representing 2% of the national total. The records include 4 individuals and 1 organization. The deactivations were recorded from August 10 through August 16, 2026. An NPI deactivation is an administrative change in the federal registry and does not by itself establish that a physician has stopped practicing or that a license action has occurred.
Credentials
Family Medicine was the most common retired taxonomy, with 3 records, or 60% of Georgia’s physician deactivations. Obstetrics & Gynecology accounted for 1 record, or 20%, and Ophthalmology accounted for 1 record, also 20%. The credential distribution is therefore concentrated in Family Medicine, while the other listed specialties each appear once. Because the total is small, the pattern describes this week’s registry activity rather than the broader composition of Georgia’s physician workforce.
City Distribution
The records are spread across five cities: Hawkinsville, Douglas, Dublin, Macon and Atlanta, with 1 deactivation in each. No city accounts for more than another in the data, so the locations do not show a single geographic concentration. The organization record is in Atlanta, while the individual records are distributed among Hawkinsville, Douglas, Dublin and Macon.
Overall, Georgia’s weekly physician deactivations show a small, geographically dispersed set of administrative registry changes, with Family Medicine the most represented taxonomy.
