by Tumi Makgale
December 10, 2025

Dr. Salvador Plasencia brought a celebrity’s addiction to a tragic end. He gave Matthew Perry a powerful drug called ketamine, which Perry misused and later died from.

This sad story shines a bright light on how some doctors take advantage of people who are suffering.
