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.

$77,440

Pharmacies billed $77,440 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 562) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical ophthalmology clinician is at 0%.

303 generic and 259 brand-name prescriptions · $77,440 in drug cost.

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.

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

10 measures · 2023

Medicare asked this office to report how often certain checkups happened in 2023. This is not a grade for the doctor. A specialist’s patients may not need every screening.
