I looked at a lot of schools, and while most of them recommended having a master's degree (or being on track to having a master's degree prior to enrollment), none required it. Also, I think the recommendation is targeted at younger applicants with modest or no professional experience. Having a master's degree may be negligible if you have a decent amount of years in the field (5+ years).

With that said, find the schools with professors whose interests align with yours, and reach out to them. Not having a master's will not put you out of the running, even if you don't have much experience.

You'll have to be more specific. As far as I know, a PhD in Public Health doesn't exist. Are you looking for DrPH programs? PhD programs Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Social and Behavioral Science, Environmental Health etc? Each subarea can have different requirements of whether you need a master's degree or not.
