ONEIDA, Tenn. (WVLT) -- The Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners suspended an Oneida doctor amid allegations that he coerced a patient to perform oral sex on him, and, on several occasions, engaged in inapropriate sexual conduct with other patients, according to documents from the Tennessee Department of Health.

"Evidence was presented to the Board that (Dr. Larry E. Perry), while in the examination room with a female patient, exposed his penis and urged the patient to perform oral sex on him," the document states. "The patient refused to do so initially, and then offered to do so if (Dr. Perry) would increase the amount of Xanax that he was prescribing her. (Dr. Perry) agreed to increase the patient's Xanax dosage from twice a day to three times a day and the patient then performed oral sex on (Dr. Perry)."

The TNDOH says Dr. Perry also, on seperate occasions and with different patients, "began kissing the patient and forced her to place her hand on his erect penis" three times; and "on at least four (4) occasions, would approach female patients in the examination room by rolling close to the patient on his stool, spreading his legs, and would then rub his genitals on the patient's leg."

The Board of Medical Examiners determined that "the conduct of Larry E. Perry, M.D. is so severe that it imperatively requires emergency action in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare prior to the initiation of formal disciplinary charges."

An informal conference on the case is scheduled for Nov. 9 in Nashville.

It's not clear whether any criminal charges will be filed agaisnt Dr. Perry.
