WELLINGTON (Reuters) - A disgruntled New Zealand doctor has turned from pills to prostitutes, winning a licence to convert his former medical practice into a brothel.
Dr Neil Benson closed his practice in Coopers Beach, about 250 km (155 miles) north-west of Auckland, late last year after a dispute with his local health organisation over after-hours care, the New Zealand Herald newspaper reported.
Benson, who has been practising medicine for the past 18 years, said he decided to turn to the world's oldest profession after someone else considered renting his empty medical centre to open a brothel.
"I thought, 'why don't we run it ourselves?' It would be a viable business and I was unemployed," he said.
"It's about providing a private service and maintaining confidentiality, which is what my medical practice was about -- so it's not a big leap, really," Benson said.
New Zealand legalised prostitution and began licensing brothels in 2003.
Benson, who said he has the support of his wife and four children, has been granted a brothel operator's certificate and plans to open an upmarket bordello next month named Whalers.
"Everything I have ever done is high quality. The standards of my medical practice were high and that will cross over to the brothel environment," Benson said
I wonder whether he can give out freebies on prescription
