I don’t think there is a rider. I believe the reason the GMC are bringing this case is because Freeman was prescribing treatment to support staff, without the knowledge of their GPs. The testosterone was for someone in their 50s with a much younger girlfriend. Allegedly.

That doesn’t seem to be the case.
Seems one of the charges is that he lied stating it was for a member of support staff.
The charges predominantly centre around lying, trying to create an alibi and it being ordered for an athlete.In researching that the GMC also tightened prescribing for yourself, friends and family in 2008 and then in 2011.

Is there anything here where the “rider” would gain protected anonymity given they couldn’t be prosecuted? Which might in turn impact on the case?
