Four Corners on ABC – More than three million Australians are living with chronic pain, and it’s become a breeding ground for exploitation.
“Someone comes along and says, ‘Trust me, I’m a doctor, I’ll take your pain away’, you would believe them.”
In a major investigation, Four Corners brings together a team of international experts to look inside the multi-billion-dollar pain industry and expose the ugly side of medicine.
With access to data from thousands of patients, ABC Investigations reporter Adele Ferguson reveals how some medical professionals are able to drain our health system.
She also meets the patients who are in worse pain after having surgery, where lives are being put at risk.
Four Corners: Pain Factory will air at 8.30pm on Monday 8 April on ABC TV and ABC iview. See more at abc.net.au/news and on ABC News social media platforms.
