We check Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, plus California above. A state that is not in this list has not been checked, which is not the same as clear.

What this clinician told their state board, medical school and everything before it. Only some states publish this, so nothing here means the state does not say, not that there was no training or certification.

$237,332

Medicare paid this office $237,332 for 836 people.

This is what Medicare paid the clinician — not Medicare Advantage, and not the pharmacy.

Procedures Medicare counted

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Who their Medicare patients are

836 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 77 · Under 65 3% · 85 and older 16% · Women 30% · Also on Medicaid 14% · Health risk score 1.24. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical urology clinician is at 1.36.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 70% · Coronary heart disease 34% · Chronic kidney disease 25% · Cancer 24% · Atrial fibrillation 23% · Diabetes 22% · Depression 21% · Heart failure 14% · Stroke 13% · COPD 11% · Dementia 7%.

The office billed $1,613,138, Medicare allowed $320,339 and paid $237,332; for 5,118 services of 74 kinds; $24,969 of it was for drugs given in the office and $212,363 for care.

Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

Year by year

Original Medicare only. A service billed for fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden, so the lines can add up to less than the year's total.

$3,776 in 2024

Medicaid paid $3,776 for 68 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 16 people in a month for one service.

Medicaid and CHIP claims where this clinician did the service, fee-for-service and managed care together. Any month with fewer than 11 patients is hidden, so small Medicaid practices undercount.

$145,578

Pharmacies billed $145,578 in 2024.

This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

Opioids were 4% of their Part D prescriptions (62 of 1,509) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical urology clinician is at 2%.

1,356 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $145,578 in drug cost · 380 antibiotic prescriptions to 249 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.

Year by year

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

$1,053 in 2025

Paid work is consulting, speaking, honoraria and royalties, as opposed to meals and travel.

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
