Doctor Email List vs CarePrecise
CarePrecise is priced on its site; Doctor Email List is one fixed price per specialty file, paid once, built from the public CMS file. Pick CarePrecise if you want every US physician, Medicare and non-Medicare, with practice group and hospital affiliations. Pick ours if you only need one or two specialties and don't want to filter a whole-country database.
We make Doctor Email List, so we are on both sides of this page. Everything about CarePrecise is what it publishes on its own site, read on Oct 6, 2026, and each cell links to the page it came from. We did not buy a list from CarePrecise.

When CarePrecise is the better pick
- You want every US physician, Medicare and non-Medicare, with practice group and hospital affiliations.
- You want a database you load into your own system rather than a list per specialty.
- You want a stated invalid-email refund or credit rule.
When Doctor Email List is the better pick
- You only need one or two specialties and don't want to filter a whole-country database.
- You want a lower one-time price for a single specialty.
- You want the CSV ready to use rather than a Microsoft Access database to query.
Where we are weaker: coverage stops at physicians enrolled in Medicare, and the email column is built for your file after you order, so check the data page for what a row holds before you buy.
What we could not check
CarePrecise sells email addresses separately, per address, so its database price is not a like-for-like price for a list with emails. We did not buy it.
