Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $1,523 of the $1,738 with a category attached, or 87.6%. It is spread thinly across 9 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 20.9% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $721 and has fallen 66.2% since, to $244 in 2023. That places this record below the midpoint for surgery clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $2,683.
Across 19 payments — averaging $91.49 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

Across 2 payments — averaging $14,854 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.

- Travel & lodging$21512%
- Food & beverage$1,52388%

General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments
Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.

What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.

- Axonics r-SNM System$289
- Da Vinci Surgical System$209
- INTERSTIM$126
- ENSEAL Product Family$111
- ECHELON FLEX Stapler$111

How this compares
$1,738 in reported general payments places this provider in the 40th percentile of 1,569 surgery providers in Florida.
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.
