No. Federal law requires drug and device makers to report almost every transfer of value to a physician, including a $14 sandwich at a lunch presentation. Consulting fees, research funding and royalties to device inventors are ordinary, legal parts of medicine. This site reports what was disclosed; it makes no allegation.

Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by consulting fees: $962,534 of the $1,079,762 with a category attached, or 89.1%. Johnson & Johnson accounts for 92.9% of it on its own, with 5 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2020 at $319,957 and has fallen 62.1% since, to $121,215 in 2025. Among surgery clinicians in FL 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.
