Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (33.0%), consulting fees and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 15 manufacturers reported payments, led by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 33.2% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $2,768 and has fallen 61.8% since, to $1,057 in 2025. Among corneal and contact management clinicians in MO 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 222 payments — averaging $54.66 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
Companies that both paid and supply prescribed drugs
These companies both reported payments to this provider and make drugs the provider prescribed under Medicare Part D in 2024. For most specialties this overlap is expected — a cardiologist who is paid by a cardiology drugmaker also treats heart disease. It is shown so the reader can see it, not because it implies anything on its own.
| Company | Paid to this provider | Part D cost of their drugs |
|---|---|---|
| AbbVieRestasis | $206 | $8,22813 claims |
Reading this fairly. The Part D column is what drug plans and patients paid pharmacies — this provider received none of it, and it reflects how many patients they treat and what those drugs cost. Against peers, this provider's reported payments sit in the 95th percentile of 22 corneal and contact management providers in Missouri.
