Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by education: $181,047 of the $262,779 with a category attached, or 68.9%. Intuitive Surgical accounts for 99.1% of it on its own, with 18 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $99,999 and has fallen 54.1% since, to $45,916 in 2025. Among surgery clinicians in WI 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 436 payments — averaging $602.70 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$262,779 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 499 surgery providers in Wisconsin.
Medicare billing
What this is not: this is the amount Original Medicare Part B allowed for services this provider billed in 2024. It is not their income. It excludes Medicare Advantage — now more than half of all Medicare enrollment — along with Medicaid and all commercial insurance, and it is gross practice revenue before staff, rent, supplies and malpractice premiums. CMS also suppresses any figure covering ten or fewer patients, so low-volume providers appear smaller than they are.
Most prescribed under Part D
| Drug | Claims | Cost to plans & patients |
|---|---|---|
| Sucralfate | 28 | $3,440 |
| Pantoprazole Sodium | 75 | $546 |
| Oxycodone Hcl | 127 | $351 |
| Celecoxib | 49 | $71 |
| Cyclobenzaprine Hcl | 14 | $59 |
| Gabapentin | 50 | $46 |
