Description
Oct. 23 on The Story: Patients trust their doctors with their bodies and with their health. But what happens when doctors abuse that trust? Today we introduce Sick Medicine, a new investigative documentary from KGW News, which examines what happens when the people charged with protecting patients and holding doctors accountable fail to do so. Our team uncovered cases where doctors were allowed to continue practicing medicine even after being credibly accused of serious misconduct, including sexual abuse or gross negligence leading to the death of a patient. In some cases, doctors escape their troubled pasts by simply moving states and continuing to practice medicine.
