A hair restoration doctor cleared by a court of illegally importing medicines has taken proceedings to stop a Medical Council hearing over the same matter. Dr Van Eeden has a regenerative medicine practice in Malahide, Co Dublin. Dr Van Eeden is being represented by barrister Alan Toal and solicitor John Geary. A central plank of Dr Van Eeden’s challenge is that the holding of the inquiry amounts to a form of “invidious discrimination”. In an affidavit, Dr Van Eeden said he believed he was clearly being discriminated against by reason only of his membership of his profession.
