Matthew Perry’s Doctor Enters Guilty Plea to Ketamine Distribution

Matthew Perry‘s doctor, Salvador Plasencia, entered a guilty plea Wednesday to four counts of ketamine distribution, and will face sentencing on Dec. 3.

As part of the deal, Plasencia, 43, will surrender his medical license within the next 30-45 days, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. He will remain free on bond pending his sentencing.

Plasencia took a plea deal in June in which he admitted to distributing ketamine without a legitimate medical purpose to the “Friends” star, who died of an overdose in October 2023. In exchange, prosecutors dropped charges of falsifying medical records and additional counts of distribution.
