I doubt you'll get many medical services without the required ID info
given. And if you insist on pissing off the office help, your medical
services efficiency will likely decline. Human nature with office folks.

The only ID I don't give when requested for 'serious' services is my
SS#. I just smile and say I can't remember it. Course that doesn't work
for places like banks, investments, Uncle Sam, etc...

In one of my prior lives I spent 25 years in law enforcement and
investigated many many burglaries. Lots of computer stuff was taken.
Perhaps that makes me more paranoid (realistic?) than the next guy. And
on a more personal not the guy across the street had all his electronics
removed in a burglary a few years ago.

Add to that that us Google users devices are completely open to Google
apps without a password or pin on the device. With me that includes
Google Drive with lots of personal backup info on it. So that's the
reason I use a pin on all my stuff. In the event of a burglary the plan
is to use a remaining device to change my Google password. Then all my
stolen stuff will no longer have my account and my info will no longer
be available. The same plan works for my phone should I lose it while 
out and about...
