Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by education: $2,400 of the $3,939 with a category attached, or 60.9%. Arthrex accounts for 73.2% of it on its own, with 12 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $3,473 and has fallen 96.0% since, to $139 in 2025. Among surgical clinicians in TN 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.
Across 48 payments — averaging $82.06 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$3,939 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 206 surgical providers in Tennessee.
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

| Diclofenac Sodium | 38 | $526 |
| Hydrocodone-AcetaminophenHydrocodone/Acetaminophen | 23 | $282 |
