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.

In some cases, doctors escape their troubled pasts by simply moving states and continuing to practice medicine.
