Mr. Readler asked Dr. Kaludy to clarify Ms. Davis’ earlier statement regarding
apologies to his staff and family members. Dr. Kaludy stated that he recognized that his
actions put his staff members, some of whom are family members, in harm’s way and
could have caused them a great deal of trouble by violating the law. He stated that he
recognized that he caused these issues and has sincerely apologized to them, as he felt it
difficult to live with himself knowing that he had placed them in harm’s way.
Motion by Dr. Howard, second by Mr. Readler, to reinstate the license of
Samuel S. Kaludy, D.D.S. to practice dentistry in the State of Ohio pursuant to
the terms set forth in his consent agreement with the Board.
