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.

Payments

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. Monika Kiripolsky received $9,828 across 3 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 89% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was Lumenis BE 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?”

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Monika Kiripolsky

Sourced directly from Dr. Monika Kiripolsky's social posts and replies.

What are Dr. Kiripolsky's recommendations for cuticle care during pedicures?
Dr. Kiripolsky advises patients to avoid the cuticle trim portion of a pedicure. Cuticles serve a crucial function as a barrier between the skin and the nail. When cut, they create an easy route for bacteria and fungi to cause problems. Instead, she recommends using an at-home cuticle soap to soften them, then gently pushing them down with a wooden cuticle stick, being careful not to break the natural barrier.
What is Subcision and how is it used for acne scarring?
Subcision is an effective procedure for all types of acne scarring. It can be paired with treatments like CO2 resurfacing laser or microneedling to achieve glowing skin.
What are the benefits and limitations of Epsom salt baths, and what form of magnesium is recommended for muscle aches?
Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate, but magnesium does not cross the skin's lipid bilayer or enter the bloodstream when applied topically or in a bath. The main benefits of an Epsom salt bath, such as increased circulation and slight soreness reduction, come from the warm water itself, not the magnesium sulfate. While oral magnesium is beneficial for sore muscles by decreasing lactic acid and increasing glucose availability, Dr. Kiripolsky advises against taking magnesium sulfate by mouth due to potential side effects like diarrhea and bloating. For muscle aches, she recommends a different form of magnesium, such as magnesium citrate. Therefore, using large quantities of Epsom salt in a bath, like 20 pounds, is considered a waste.
