Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $66,179 of the $89,722 with a category attached, or 73.8%. It is spread thinly across 16 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.1%. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $32,401 and has fallen 54.6% since, to $14,696 in 2025. Among pediatrics clinicians in CA 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 84 payments — averaging $1068.12 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
