PALLAVI GOWDA, D.O. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Obesity Medicine (Preventive Medicine) Physician provider holding D.O. credentials at 3202 TOWER OAKS BLVD STE 200, ROCKVILLE, MD, 20852, with a listed phone of (888) 880-3202. NPI 1821257478 was issued on 06/07/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what GOWDA 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 319 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 28 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $24K in drug spend, split 10% brand-name and 90% generic by claim count. 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.

Obesity Medicine (Preventive Medicine) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 126 enrolled providers across 35 states and an average of 1,219 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
