Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $438,005 of the $608,103 with a category attached, or 72.0%. Cantel Medical LLC accounts for 73.4% of it on its own, with 5 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $192,470 and has fallen 100.0% since, to $17 in 2025. Among anesthesiology clinicians in MD 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.
