Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $2,439 of the $2,865 with a category attached, or 85.1%. It is spread thinly across 32 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 22.5% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. 2025 is the largest year on record at $1,359, 9.3 times the $146 reported in 2019. That places this record below the midpoint for foot & ankle surgery clinicians in UT, where the typical reported total is $3,480.
Across 104 payments — averaging $27.55 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$2,865 in reported general payments places this provider in the 45th percentile of 104 foot & ankle surgery providers in Utah.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Methylprednisolone | 53 | $461 |
| Hydrocodone-AcetaminophenHydrocodone/Acetaminophen | 43 | $307 |
| Sulfamethoxazole-TrimethoprimSulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim | 27 | $132 |
| Amoxicillin-Clavulanate PotassAmoxicillin/Potassium Clav | 18 | $129 |
| Tramadol Hcl | 11 | $45 |
