The system allowing doctors disciplined for sexual misconduct to keep practising | Four Corners

By Corruption Buzz On Feb 8, 2023

After a six-month investigation, Four Corners has discovered hundreds of Australian health practitioners who have been sexually inappropriate with patients.

Many of them are still working today.

Australia’s complex and confusing health regulation system is struggling to protect the public. There are now urgent calls to change the way doctors are governed, upholding the profession’s sacred oath to do no harm.
