INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indiana Medical Licensing Board on Monday summarily suspended the medical license of Dr. A. Michael Guirguis for 90 days, effective immediately. The emergency action follows a petition from Attorney General Todd Rokita’s office, citing allegations that Guirguis, a fo rmer primary care doctor in Madison, sexually abused multiple male patients during medical exams. Dr. Guirguis practiced with Norton Healthcare in Jefferson County from 2008 until his termination in December 2025 for “grossly unprofessional conduct.” Claims of abuse include: Observing a patient ejaculate to provide a semen sample Grabbing a patient’s penis during a prostate exam and tugging and rubbing other patients’ genitals Conducting prolonged genital examinations lasting approximately 10 minutes Using more than one finger during rectal and prostate exams Failing to warn patients before digital rectal insertion Performing genital and prostate exams without gloves “These allegations are deeply disturbing and represent an egregious, unconscionable betrayal of the sacred trust Hoosiers place in their medical professionals,” Attorney General Todd Rokita said in a release. “No patient should ever fear abuse or exploitation when seeking care—especially during the most vulnerable and sensitive examinations.” Rokita urged anyone with similar experiences to contact his office. “Victims who bravely come forward are the true heroes in these cases—their voices expose wrongdoing and prevent it from happening to others,” Rokita said. “Together, we can ensure predators never prey on vulnerable patients again.” The 90-day summary suspension allows state officials to investigate the claims against Dr. Guirguis and pursue formal charges to seek the permanent revocation of his medical license.
