Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $371,125 of the $449,238 with a category attached, or 82.6%. Stryker accounts for 99.0% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $105,194 and has fallen 71.0% since, to $30,499 in 2025. Among oral and maxillofacial surgery clinicians in PA 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 500 payments — averaging $898.48 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
