Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $21,542 of the $35,413 with a category attached, or 60.8%. Motiva USA, LLC accounts for 74.9% of it on its own, with 15 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $14,403, more than ten times the $216 reported in 2019. Among plastic 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.
