Strauss Clinic

Strauss Clinic, situated at 305 Estill St, Berea, KY 40403, was a medical clinic associated with Dr. Jon M. Strauss. While the specific range of services offered by Strauss Clinic is not exhaustively detailed, information from disciplinary proceedings indicates it provided general medical care, including family medicine. For a period, it also encompassed a male-only general medical and addiction practice, which included the prescription of Suboxone. The clinic's history is notably marked by significant disciplinary actions against Dr. Jon M. Strauss by the Kentucky Board of medical licensure. These actions, which began around 2010, stemmed from multiple grievances and investigations. Key issues included inappropriate prescribing of controlled substances, particularly in relation to drug addiction treatment, and a failure to conform to acceptable and prevailing medical practices. Concerns were raised regarding poor record keeping, lack of appropriate laboratory tests, and inadequate treatment plans for various conditions, including ADHD and diabetes. Most seriously, Dr. Strauss was found to have engaged in sexual contact with patients, leading to violations of professional conduct and ethical standards. These findings resulted in a five-year probation period for Dr. Strauss, allowing him to continue practicing medicine under strict conditions.
