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

24

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. Warren A. Ellsworth received $7,779 across 24 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 89% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as consulting fee, 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?”

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Warren A. Ellsworth

Sourced directly from Dr. Warren A. Ellsworth's social posts and replies.

Why does nasal congestion sometimes shift from one side to the other?
Nasal congestion shifting sides is a natural phenomenon due to turbinates cycling by swelling and shrinking to humidify, cleanse, and warm the air. Allergies can cause increased turbinate swelling, blocking one side and leading to this cyclical congestion.

What are Dr. Ellsworth's recommendations for pelvic floor exercises?
Dr. Ellsworth recommends holding a pelvic floor squeeze for 3-10 seconds, resting for 5-10 seconds, and performing 30-40 squeezes daily. He notes that the mere thought of engaging these muscles can activate them, and that individuals have varying strengths and weaknesses.

What is Dr. Ellsworth's view on the 'Wolverine peptide' for regeneration and wound healing, especially after surgery?
The 'Wolverine peptide' is a stack of TB500 and BPC157, often discussed for regenerative and wound healing characteristics. However, Dr. Ellsworth notes there is no clear evidence that these two peptides together have any meaningful and studied impact, and evidence behind many claims remains limited, making their use for speeding healing or reducing scarring after surgery unproven.

What is Dr. Ellsworth's perspective on using peptides in skincare for anti-aging and collagen stimulation, and can they replace injectables?
Dr. Ellsworth believes the risks of using peptides in skincare are low and there can be some benefits, with reasonable science behind certain types like palmitoyl tripeptide 5 and copper peptides for collagen stimulation and anti-aging. He notes peptides are often in cosmeceuticals, which are not FDA regulated but are less unregulated than some other peptide manufacturing. Potential risks include skin irritation or not achieving desired impact, as what peptides actually do for skin isn't always straightforward. He emphasizes that expectations matter when incorporating them into a routine, and their ability to replace injectables is limited by their mechanism and regulation.

What are the diagnostic criteria for normal blood glucose, pre-diabetes, and diabetes?
A normal fasting blood glucose level is less than 100 mg/dL. Levels between 100-125 mg/dL are diagnosed as pre-diabetes, at which point quick intervention is recommended. A blood glucose level of 126 mg/dL or higher leads to a diagnosis of diabetes.

What are Dr. Ellsworth's recommendations for using weighted vests or rucking for bone health?
Weighted vests or rucking can help build bone, especially for older individuals, by adding stress to the body during walking. Dr. Ellsworth advises caution, recommending starting with approximately 10% of one's body weight to avoid injury.
