A Long Island man is facing a host of charges for allegedly posing as a medical professional and running an illegal health clinic, where he treated patients.

Brian Michael Kaufman, 45, of Smithtown, allegedly ran Mens Health Solution of Smithtown on Middle Country Road, despite not having a medical license, Suffolk County DA Tim Sini announced.

He allegedly treated patients, including testosterone and steroid injections.

The investigation into Kaufmans practice determined that he allegedly has been operating the medical practice since at least August last year.

When he was arrested, Kaufman admitted to investigators that he was not licensed to practice any medical profession and had no training to provide medical services or provide testosterone replacement therapy, the DA said.

Mens Health Solution of Smithtown has since shuttered its doors.

"This individual put lives in danger and posed a clear threat to public health by masquerading as a medical practitioner," Sini said in a statement. "He did not have patients; he had victims. We are asking those victims to please contact the District Attorney's Office with any information they may have about Kaufman's alleged scam."

Kaufman has been charged with:

"This case is significant because it unearthed a convicted felon playing doctor who jeopardized his 'patients' lives," DEA agent Ray Donovan said. "In order to safeguard our communities, law enforcement has to act fast when they see someone threatening public health and safety.

"In this case, Brian Kaufman's alleged testosterone trafficking ring put people in harm's way while committing several crimes."

If convicted, Kaufman faces up to seven years in prison on the top count. He was arraigned this week and released with a GPS monitoring device. He will also be subjected to drug testing and is under travel restrictions.

Anyone who has received medical services from Kaufman or at Mens Health of Smithtown has been asked to contact the Suffolk County District Attorneys Office by calling (631) 853-8087.
