Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$21,939
Pharmacies billed $21,939 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 143) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical podiatry clinician is at 5%.
83 generic and 60 brand-name prescriptions · $21,939 in drug cost · 77 antibiotic prescriptions to 45 people.
Part D prescriptions only. The opioid rate is opioid prescriptions as a share of all this clinician's Part D prescriptions; surgeons and pain specialists run higher than others, so it is shown against the same specialty.
