We require your identification to ensure the safety and security of both dental offices and professionals. GoTu provides credential management services by verifying your license, ID (such as a driver’s license or passport), and any relevant certifications when setting up your account. This verification process helps maintain a secure and trustworthy platform, ensuring that only qualified professionals connect with dental offices. By upholding these safety standards, we create a reliable experience for everyone. Rest assured, your information is securely handled, and only our verification team has access to it.
