$566,160 reported by drug & device companies in 2024 · 13 payments

Not all payments mean the same thing. Split apart:

$179
Promotional

Meals, speaking fees, travel, consulting — money from companies marketing their products. This is the relationship to weigh against a recommendation. For this doctor it is routine and small.

$565,982
Royalty / ownership

Income for a device or method the doctor invented or owns — large for some surgeons, and not a conflict over what to prescribe you.

This doctor's promotional total is about what a few sponsored meals over a year cost — common, and not on its own a reason for concern.

Largest paying companies

The companies that paid this doctor the most in 2024 — each company's full total (promotional + research + royalty), from CMS's separate by-company report, so these may not add up to the split above.

What this is — and is not

This is the public record companies are required by law to report (the Sunshine Act). A disclosed payment is a financial relationship — it is not proof of wrongdoing, and not evidence that it changed your care. Many payments are entirely legitimate (research, royalties for inventions, education). The point is transparency: you get to know, and to ask. It is not a rating of Dr. Jonathan Garino.
