Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (47.7%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 16 manufacturers reported payments, led by Galderma Laboratories, L.p. at 34.2% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $50,008 and has fallen 94.6% since, to $2,716 in 2025. Among plastic and reconstructive surgery clinicians in TX with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 215 payments — averaging $340.07 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
