A Victorian doctor has had his medical licence revoked after performing bizarre sexual examinations on naked patients.

Grant Woo, a Chinese medicine specialist in South Yarra, has admitted to convincing a woman he needed to examine her internally to reach a pressure point affecting her hormone imbalance, the Herald Sun reports.

Dr Woo also inserted some Chinese Herbal powder into another female patient's vagina to treat her digestive problems.

He stroked a third patient's nipples "to stimulate her hormones".

The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal found Dr Woo guilty of unprofessional conduct and cancelled his medical registration after the Chinese Medicine Registration Board took action against him.

During a VCAT hearing, Dr Woo admitted to performing unnecessary internal examinations that were medically inappropriate.

According to expert witnesses who gave evidence at the hearing, there are no acupuncture points in the vagina.

The VCAT ruled the internal examinations were clinically unjustified but were carried out by Dr Woo "for his own sexual gratification".

He has been banned from re-applying for his medical registration for two years.
