A high-profile GP has unwittingly become the face of ‘organic’ erectile dysfunction treatments and ketogenic weight-loss products with his image used in advertisements on Facebook.

Dr Brad McKay, former host of TV show Embarrassing Bodies Down Under, says he has been fighting to have the advertisements taken down and his image removed from the websites, but it’s becoming a game of “whack-a-mole”.
