LESLIE SMITH, RN, AOCNS, APRN-CNS appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist provider holding RN, AOCNS, APRN-CNS credentials at 10 CENTER DR ROOM 3-5485, BETHESDA, MD, 20892, with a listed phone of (240) 507-8218. NPI 1972168086 was issued on 05/03/2019. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what SMITH most recently submitted to CMS rather than a vetted directory listing, which is why patients should always confirm the practice is still at this location before scheduling.

Medicare Part D prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal — many Oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist providers operate outside Part D entirely.

Oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 209 enrolled providers across 38 states and an average of 435 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. Inclusion here does not imply a recommendation, and absence of complaints or sanctions on this page does not mean none exist — always verify credentials through the NPPES NPI Registry, your state medical board, and the ABMS or AOA before making healthcare decisions.
