Gastroenterology & Hepatology Listed by LeakBazaar Ransomware Group

If you are a customer of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

Gastroenterology & Hepatology was listed on LeakBazaar's leak site. LeakBazaar claims to have stolen internal data. This is the group's claim, not a confirmed finding.

Gastroenterology & Hepatology Listed by LeakBazaar Ransomware Group

On April 17, 2026, the ransomware group LeakBazaar listed a full database from a gastroenterology and hepatology practice containing records for 167,303 patients, including 124,761 Social Security numbers and sensitive medical diagnoses for nearly 50,000 people.

Already exposed?

You can’t unleak data. You can take away what it’s worth.

A leaked record is where it starts, not where it ends. What turns it into your front door is the look-up sites publishing your address beside your name — and those are what an AI reads when somebody asks about you. The free scan shows you both. We write to 580 companies.

What Public Reporting Shows

Public reporting indicates the attacker exfiltrated internal files during a ransomware incident and has now placed the entire dataset for sale on its leak site. The exposed information covers 167,303 patients, of whom 124,761 have SSNs, 166,402 (99%) have addresses, 164,296 (98%) have phone numbers, and 85,318 (51%) have email addresses.

The database also includes 1,093,863 diagnoses coded in ICD-10, 1,547,142 medication records, and 186,246 pathology specimens accompanied by narrative reports. Among these, 49,798 patients—44,861 of them with SSNs—carry diagnoses or medications flagged as sensitive. The breakdown of sensitive cases includes mental health conditions for 43,902 patients, substance or alcohol issues for 5,111, STIs for 2,779, cancer for 2,708, and hepatitis C for 1,906. Available reporting notes that the records contain information on notable individuals including politicians, business leaders, and other public figures.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a medical provider loses control of this volume of personal and health data, the risk extends far beyond the clinic. Your name, address, phone number, email, SSN, and exact medical history can be purchased in one transaction. That combination allows identity thieves to open accounts, file fraudulent tax returns, or impersonate you with insurers. For families, the exposure can affect every member listed in a shared household record.

Unverified claim — what this report is

This page documents a public listing on a ransomware/extortion group’s leak site, tracked via public threat-intelligence sources. A listing is the attacker’s claim. GalaxyWarden aggregates and reports such claims; we have not independently verified that a breach occurred, what data (if any) was taken, or the accuracy of anything the group asserts, and the named organisation has not necessarily confirmed the incident. Sections above describe what the listing shows and the group’s documented history — not verified findings about the named organisation. If you represent this organisation and believe anything here is inaccurate, tell us and we’ll review it promptly.

Editorial & sourcing policy

GalaxyWarden is a breach-monitoring service and news aggregator. We do not exfiltrate, host, purchase, or redistribute stolen data. Breach information is compiled from publicly accessible sources and threat-intelligence platforms, and is reported as claims attributed to their source. We promptly correct or remove material shown to be inaccurate — see our content & takedown policy or write to support@galaxywarden.com.
