Hm what’s the best way to look up the owner of a business? I share this viewpoint on dentists and doctors

The fastest and simplest way is to ask them directly by calling or emailing. Searching for information about private legal entities, while possible, is inconvenient and usually incomplete/sparse.
But why would they respond with that information?

PE already has a pretty bad press, so they know that customers are calling only because PE is a red flag.

They could just serve some meaningless half-truth and try to confuse you.

PE often doesn’t care because most folks don’t know what is going on. Private practitioners are usually proud of it.
