Shortcut: Australia's Doctor Death

Shortcut: Australia's Doctor Death

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

Award winning journalist Hedley Thomas joins us to discuss Sick to Death, his podcast and bestselling book examining the case of Dr Jayant Patel, the Bundaberg surgeon accused of causing patient deaths after being barred from practising in the United States.

In this conversation, he unpacks how the investigation uncovered deep failures within Australia’s health system and the extraordinary courage of a nurse who chose to speak up.
