What Doctors Data, Inc does

Doctors Data, Inc. is a CLIA-licensed specialty diagnostic clinical laboratory founded in 1972 and headquartered in St. Charles, Illinois. The company provides innovative specialty testing services to healthcare practitioners worldwide — primarily naturopathic doctors, functional medicine providers, and integrative clinicians — covering gastrointestinal microbiome analysis, urinary hormone metabolites, toxic and essential element assessment, cardiometabolic risk, endocrinology, neurotransmitter profiling, and nutritional status. Its flagship products include the GI360 stool profile (combining multiplex PCR molecular technology, growth-based culture, MALDI-TOF microbial identification, microscopy, and biochemical assays, plus a proprietary Dysbiosis Index and Microbiome Diversity Score based on Shannon's diversity index), the trademarked HuMap hormone metabolite profile, and a recently launched NAD Profile for mitochondrial health assessment.

The laboratory is built on advanced analytical instrumentation including Dynamic Reaction Cell ICP-MS for elemental analysis, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for microbial identification, GC/MS, UHPLC, and LC/MS QQQ chromatography for hormone and neurotransmitter analysis, and PCR-based DNA amplification assays. Doctors Data is out-of-network with all insurance companies and operates a transactional B2B go-to-market: licensed healthcare providers establish verified accounts and order test kits for their patients, with billing either at list price to insurance/Medicare/patients or at prompt-payment pricing to physician accounts/prepayments. Distribution is exclusively through licensed providers, with EMR/EHR integrations into Cerbo and Power2Practice platforms and test kit shipping available domestically (included) and internationally (separate charge). The company maintains CLIA, CAP, HIPAA, and multi-state laboratory licenses (CA, NY, MD, OH, PA, RI) plus European Commission JRC validated supplier status, and supports practitioners through a clinical education team of staff physicians and naturopathic doctors, an archived newsletter library dating to 2017, regular webinars, and presence at functional/integrative medicine conferences. A text-based AI assistant named DeeDee has been introduced for customer support and clinical inquiries. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent or institutional ownership.
