Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,612 of the $4,063 with a category attached, or 88.9%. It is spread thinly across 24 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 22.0% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $2,068 and has fallen 66.9% since, to $684 in 2025. Among obstetrics & gynecology clinicians in NY with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 102 payments — averaging $39.83 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
