Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 98.3% of the total across 160 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 22 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 21.6% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,148 and has fallen 97.6% since, to $27 in 2025.
