I’m lucky to live in the great state of Ohio as well. ? No, I don’t think those restrictions can be completely lifted. However, given board approval, I am allowed to deviate from the permanent restrictions.
Looking at it that way, I think you’re correct. I believe the permanent restrictions are what keeps my license encumbered. I doubt they will lift the permanent restrictions altogether. I think it is a way to continue monitoring at some level. My perm...
Thank you for your response and congratulations on your achievement. My license is unencumbered(completion of monitoring and probation) but I do have permanent practice restrictions. These permanent practice restrictions are up to the discretion of t...
Hi all, I am a recovering addict and am trying to go back to school. I am nearly 6 years post-discipline and recently applied to graduate school. I was ultimately denied due to having an encumbered license. Does anyone have any experience with return...

I have the same permanent practice restrictions. I spoke with my monitor today as I had applied to a university and was denied due to an encumbered license. He says it is forever encumbered due to the permanent restrictions. That’s incredibly tough...

I see. I don’t doubt the accuracy. It appears they have the dates correct as far as board action and my time during suspension and probation. Other than that I don’t know what else to say. Again, as far as I’m concerned, my license isn’t encumbered. ...

Completed probation about 8-9 months ago. Once I met the time requirements I contacted the board and asked to be released. They held their next meeting and I was granted the end of my probation. Once that decision is made, my monitor contacted me and...
