We truly appreciate your concern and your privacy is our main priority. Our site does not keep any database, we are reflecting the NPI information that is publicly exposed by NPPES - the governmental organization that issues NPI numbers. We encourage you to take a moment and alter your profile to hide any private information, cause it becomes publicly distributed in the internet by NPPES. You can alter or update your information using the instructions below.
All complaints regarding the private information exposed publicly or other similar types of inquiries must be forwarded to NPPES using their contacts listed on our FAQ page. But we do care about your privacy, so we will give you all necessary tools to resolve the issue.
