Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 92.3% of the total across 126 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 24 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 20.7% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $1,038 and has fallen 93.2% since, to $70 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for dermatology clinicians in GA, where the typical reported total is $3,907.
