Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (42.3%), other and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Convatec Inc. accounts for 88.7% of it on its own, with 26 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $61,150 and has fallen 83.9% since, to $9,830 in 2025. Among foot & ankle 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.
Across 153 payments — averaging $612.61 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$93,729 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 850 foot & ankle 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.
Most prescribed under Part D
