About

Dr. David Passaretti, MD, FACS, is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon practicing in Darien, Connecticut. He specializes in cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, focusing on procedures of the face, breast, and body, and also offers injectable and skin treatments. Dr. Passaretti emphasizes that body contouring procedures are not a "one-size-fits-all" solution, tailoring each approach to the individual patient. His priority is maintaining a soft, natural aesthetic while maximizing core definition. For facial aesthetics, Dr. Passaretti believes the eyes are a primary focal point. His blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) technique carefully addresses excess upper lid skin and under eye fullness, aiming to reveal a naturally alert, refreshed contour and a brighter, more open gaze that still looks completely natural, preserving the patient's unique features. He also notes that an anatomy-driven abdominoplasty can sculpt a flat abdomen and a seamless waistline.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2025)

$72

Payments

3

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. David Passaretti received $72 across 3 payments in 2025. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
