I. INTRODUCTION

Complainant respectfully submits this complaint to the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts requesting formal investigation and regulatory review concerning Sarah Drake (the Respondent), practicing through Drake Chiropractic, 913-708-0867 LOCATION 2722 N 155th Street, Basehor, Kansas, 66007.

The public materials reviewed appear to present representations concerning the identification and management of health conditions, including On the autism spectrum, Colic or excessive fussiness, Torticollis and head tilt, Recurring ear infections or sinus congestion, Plagiocephaly (flat head), and Frequent ear infections. A chiropractic license in Kansas covers the spine, joints and muscles. It does not cover diagnosing or treating these conditions. In their own published words, the Respondent presents themselves as qualified to treat, or gives advice on, children's conditions: autism, infant colic and reflux, ear infections, and torticollis and infant development. The public list this review uses, drtrustmebro.com/conditions, groups them under infants and children and names the pediatric clinician who treats each one.

This complaint is based exclusively upon publicly available materials and does not rely upon confidential patient records, privileged communications, or non-public investigative information. The factual observations herein were assembled from an automated public-record review of the Respondent's public website and public registry records, and were reviewed and adopted by the Complainant. All observations are potential, unverified signals from public records; the Board is the sole finder of fact.

The principal public materials reviewed include http://www.drakechiroandrehab.com/ and the public registry and license verification sources listed in the exhibit index below.

II. STATEMENT OF FACTS

A. Scope of Practice Concerns

Publicly available content associated with Sarah Drake, credentialed as a DC and practicing in Kansas, appears to address autism spectrum concerns, colic or excessive fussiness, torticollis and head tilt, recurring ear infections or sinus congestion, plagiocephaly, frequent ear infections, and pediatric chiropractic in connection with colic, reflux, ear infections, and developmental delays. The content also appears to address inflammation or autoimmune tendencies, chronic fatigue and systemic inflammation, functional lab testing, and food sensitivity evaluations. One item states, "When this area is misaligned, it can trigger a cascade of nervous system dysfunction." The public content appears to present these topics in relation to chiropractic care. The public-record review describes a Kansas chiropractic license as covering the spine, joints, and muscles, and indicates that it does not cover diagnosing or treating autism, infant colic and reflux, torticollis and infant development, ear infections, autoimmune disease, chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, or allergies and asthma. The review also indicates that functional lab testing may fall outside the scope of a Kansas DC license and characterizes the cited rule text's treatment of the nervous-system statement as a gray area.
