A Sydney-based Exclusive Brethren doctor has been banned from medicine after prescribing chemical castration for a young gay New Zealander.
In 2008, Exclusive Brethren member and GP Mark Christopher James Craddock wrote the 18-year-old a prescription for the anti-androgen therapy cyproterone acetate (Cyprostat) during a brief home consultation.
