No. The Patent Office has no responsibility for making sure that other people don't use your technology, even if it's patented. It's your responsibility to identify people infringing your patent and to take appropriate action. Which might be to approach those infringers, it might be to sue them in the courts. But your first step would be to get some good legal advice as to what your options are.
