What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 3 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. Abbott accounts for 72.5% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. That places this record below the midpoint for adolescent medicine clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $190.
