did that and got 100 pay services,

Look I had a patient who's father brought him to our office by mistake, he didn't know where he was supposed to be, calling the number lead to a disconnected cell, so this was obviously a mistake on his part in taking down the number, I was hoping to search similiar numbers for a pediatric office as it didnt match any of the ones that came up when I googled peds in my area. I was hoping it was a back line.

That said I really appreciate the troll comments.

Thanks, I did try whitepages.com. I hate that they mostly link you to those paid background searches.

I guess at this point its mute. The guy had to go home an try and figure out where he was supposed to be, what sucks is that his kid missed the appointment.

moot, not mute.

I personally am trying to find a decent caller-id lookup site, not just reverse directory lookup. CIDDB was good, but now I can't get any matches on anything on CIDDB, even numbers that I own and know have CID entries.

I looked up our house phone and it came back to the proper name - I guess YMMV..
