Dr David Berger is being required by AHPRA to undergo education in regard to his historical social media commentary.

Further education is a good thing for all of us, but why him, and why now?

Out of the myriad “emotional and pejorative” opinions we see on twitter, Facebook and in traditional media posted by registered medical practitioners, is he really an outlier, or has AHPRA been successfully weaponised by some anon who disagrees with his rudely expressed opinions about their incompetence or malfeasance?

After publicity about our open letter, which outlined some problems with the action against Dr Berger, AHPRA released a statement on 25 July 2022.
