Collaboration between Ethicon Endo-Surgery Inc. and health care professionals is fundamental to developing innovative treatments and procedures that advance patient care. As part of our ongoing commitment to ensure ethical and transparent interactions with medical professionals, we and other Johnson & Johnson operating companies now voluntarily provide information about consulting and royalty payments made to physicians. That information is available here.

We believe greater transparency will help the general public and patients better understand the nature of our collaboration with physician consultants and know that this work is necessary to bring important technologies to market in service of patients around the globe.
