Brabant doctor banned from treating women after two affairs

A family doctor in Brabant has been banned from treating women by a disciplinary committee after having two relationships with patients.

It has been at least 15 years since a doctor was banned from treating patients of a particular sex, Nos television reported.

Disciplinary proceedings were started after the doctor told a colleague about the affairs, which took place in 2006 and 2007.

The committee said it was banning the doctor from treating female patients in the future because it considered there was a risk he would do the same thing again.
