Abbie and Amy debrief about a shocking story reported by Four Corners after a 7-month-long investigation into Dr Simon Gordon. Once one of Victoria's top gynaecologists, the ABC have exposed a pattern of Dr Gordon performing unnecessary and harmful surgeries on women. This story shows how far we have to go in relation to actually addressing medical misogyny, as well as the holes in the system for practices like this to go unchecked and ignored.
