Collingwood's top doctor, Chris Bradshaw, has been temporarily stood down from duties at the AFL club after having his medical registration suspended.

The club says it is aware of the suspension, made by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Authority, but is not involved in the matter.

"Chris will not be fulfilling his role as Collingwood physician in charge while this matter proceeds," the Pies said in a statement on Friday.

"Collingwood is not in a position to make any further comment."

Bradshaw started with the club in 2014 after nine years as the leading doctor at Geelong.

He has previously worked with Melbourne, Richmond and with English Premier League club Fulham.
