Dr Charlie Teo says he has been ordered by the Medical Council of NSW to consult with another neurosurgeon before performing two types of procedures.

Last week, the high-profile doctor appeared before a special hearing to answer complaints regarding his work.

Although the details of any decision made by the council’s “immediate action panel” are confidential, Dr Teo said in a statement he had agreed to recommended changes to his practice.

“[I have] accepted the medical council’s direction to consult with another neurosurgeon on two rare types of surgery and will also have retrospective discussions with a colleague to review outcomes,” he said in a statement.
