Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $177,024 of the $239,027 with a category attached, or 74.1%. Novo Nordisk accounts for 64.0% of it on its own, with 12 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $119,100 and has fallen 99.7% since, to $313 in 2025. Among internal medicine clinicians in FL 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.

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.
