Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — grants (44.7%), speaking fees and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 20 manufacturers reported payments, led by Galderma Laboratories, L.p. at 46.0% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $195,072 and has fallen 92.0% since, to $15,696 in 2025. Among procedural dermatology clinicians in CA 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 293 payments — averaging $1450.52 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
