COLLINGWOOD’S chief medical officer has been stripped of his medical licence.
COLLINGWOOD’S chief medical officer has been stripped of his medical licence.
As the Magpies prepare to launch into pre-season, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency has this week moved to place Dr Chris Bradshaw on suspension.
The ruling means Bradshaw is banned from practising medicine in Australia.
Bradshaw’s registration details in the AHPRA database state: “Pursuant to section 191(3)(c) of the Act Dr Bradshaw is reprimanded”.
That section states: “If a panel decides a registered health practitioner or student has an impairment, or that a practitioner has behaved in a way that constitutes unsatisfactory professional performance or unprofessional conduct, the panel may decide to ... for a performance and professional standards panel, caution or reprimand the practitioner”.
The long-time AFL medico joined Collingwood from Geelong three seasons ago.
He headed up the Cats’ medical department during their three premiership seasons.
