The doctor who first recognised Erin Patterson was dangerous the moment he laid eyes on her has been punished by the medical regulator for discussing the case.
Dr Chris Webster made headlines during and after Patterson's epic trial with his straight-talking account of what took place when the killer walked into his hospital.
Patterson, who turns 51 this month, was found guilty of the murders of Don and Gail Patterson, and Gail's sister, Heather Wilkinson.
They died after consuming death cap mushrooms served in beef Wellingtons during lunch at her Leongatha home on July 29, 2023.
Only Pastor Ian Wilkinson survived the lunch, with Patterson also convicted of his attempted murder.
The Medical Board of Australia this week said Dr Webster must complete one-on-one education with an approved educator for a minimum of eight hours.
He was forced to appear before the board after it received a complaint about his comments following the trial, in which he was a key prosecution witness.
After the verdict, Dr Webster told Melbourne newspaper the Herald Sun he thought Patterson was a 'crazy b***h'.
'If she said she picked them (the death caps), it would have been a very different mindset for me because there would have been an instant assumption it was all a tragic accident,' he told the newspaper.
'But once she said (that she bought the mushrooms from Woolworths), my thoughts were, "holy f***ing shit, you f***ing did it, you crazy b***h, you poisoned them all."
'The turning point for me was that moment.'
Dr Webster also described Patterson as a 'disturbed sociopathic nutbag'.
The country doctor was a key medical witness early in the ten-week trial, telling the jury he first encountered Patterson at Leongatha Hospital about 8am on Sunday, July 31, 2023 - two days after her deadly lunch.
At that time, Don, Gail, Heather and her husband, Ian Wilkinson were fighting for life in various hospitals.
Dr Webster was already aware that her four guests may have been poisoned with death cap mushrooms when he first laid eyes on Patterson at the hospital.
The experienced doctor, who now owns Leongatha Healthcare clinic, told the jury he apologised to Patterson before he recognised her as the lunch cook.
The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency on Wednesday ordered Dr Webster to undertake mentoring, which will force him to participate in a minimum of five one-hour sessions on a monthly basis.
The training will instruct him on the 'appropriate use and disclosure of private and confidential information, managing and responding to requests for private and confidential information, professionalism and ethics and professional communication', it was reported.
The board said Dr Webster must also be educated on his use of social media.
The ruling comes after the doctor was praised worldwide for his decisive actions after the lunch.
On Friday he admitted he was releived to have the case dealt with and was able to return to his normal life.
'I am not happy about the conditions, but I am happier,' he told the ABC.
'Since accepting the conditions I have actually felt a burden released from my shoulders.'
He had vowed to clear his name in July after he was accused of being a 'misogynist'.
'I'm not that at all, that's not me,' Dr Webster told Daily Mail at the time.
'I stand by what I've done, this is very important.
'I'm happy to do all the media but it's become all too much now and I have engaged a lawyer and now gagged from any future media (in the short term).
'It's one thing copping these accusations on social media and Instagram but now it's formal complaints.
'I need to get home and back to work and sort this out, and once things are sorted I will speak again.'
Dr Webster said the complaints had left him and his family exhausted.
'One of the complaints accused me of talking about a "patient of mine", they referred to Patterson as a "patient of mine", not as a convicted killer,' he said.
During the trial, Dr Webster told the court that Patterson had discharged herself against medical advice.
'I was surprised, well, I had just informed (her) she had just been exposed to a deadly death cap mushroom and I thought hospital would be a better place to be,' Dr Webster told the court.
'I rang Erin's mobile three times and left three voicemails.
'I was apologetic, and I informed the voicemail that I would have to inform police for her health and safety to bring her back to hospital.'
Dr Webster rang triple-0 and that call was played to the jury.
The operator informed Dr Webster that police would drive to Patterson's home in Leongatha to perform a welfare check.
Dr Webster said he encountered Patterson again just before 10am that same day after she returned to the hospital.
At 10.04am, police called the hospital and said they had arrived at Patterson's house.
'I told them she was here (at hospital) but I asked them to grab some of the leftover Wellington,' Dr Webster said.
'I had no idea, but figured there was a chance, strike while the iron is hot.'
Dr Webster said he became concerned about Patterson after warning her that her children could be in dire trouble.
'I stressed the importance of getting them to hospital,' he said.
'Erin was reluctant to inform the children and I said it was important, she was concerned they were going to be frightened.
'I said, "they can be scared and alive, or dead."'
