What this record shows

That places this record below the midpoint for procedural dermatology clinicians in NY, where the typical reported total is $3,601.
Across 111 payments — averaging $24.86 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
