A GP told receptionists to leave scripts for addictive drugs in his practice mailbox, where patients picked them up and left $5 as payment, a tribunal has found.

The GP from Camden, near Sydney, also shared a “recreational” needle of morphine from his doctor’s bag with his then girlfriend, who worked part-time as a practice receptionist, according to findings published this month.
