Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (55.1%), speaking fees and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 16 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 59.8% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $7,019 and has fallen 71.6% since, to $1,990 in 2025. Among plastic and reconstructive surgery clinicians in CA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.

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.

How this compares

$22,045 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 349 plastic and reconstructive surgery providers in California.
