What is Dr. McGovern's recommended summer skincare routine?
Dr. McGovern recommends a powerful summer routine combining Enliven C&E Gel and Matte UV Defense SPF 40.

Matte UV Defense SPF 40 follows, providing broad-spectrum sun protection with a lightweight, matte finish that sits beautifully under makeup or on its own. Together, these products defend and repair the skin, forming the foundation of smart summer skincare.

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)

$765

Payments

18

Compared to peers

Modest

Dr. Meghan K. McGovern received $765 across 18 payments in 2025. That is higher than about 57% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was REVANCE THERAPEUTICS, 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?”
