Nirvi Shah, D.O. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Rehabilitation Practitioner provider holding D.O. credentials at 5055 CALIFORNIA AVE STE 300, Bakersfield, CA, 93309, with a listed phone of (661) 334-2009. NPI 1215381959 was issued on 04/19/2016. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Shah 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 records for calendar year 2023 show 1,792 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 448 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $34K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 51.7%. These figures capture only Medicare Part D — commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy.

Rehabilitation Practitioner is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 18,261 enrolled providers across 51 states and an average of 543 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.
