Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $251,004 of the $320,965 with a category attached, or 78.2%. AbbVie accounts for 94.7% of it on its own, with 25 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $128,534 and has fallen 79.0% since, to $26,991 in 2025. Among plastic surgery clinicians in NC 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.
