Who is Doctor Oz? I hear his name thrown about all the time yet I haven't the foggiest who this bloke is!

Curious more then anything else, why do some people love him and others openly mock?

    He's a clown with an MD who got popular by going on Oprah and scaring housewives into thinking everything they touch or eat will kill them.

    Yep. This pretty much sums it up.

    So don't particularly take what he's saying as serious information?

    It's safe to assume it's B.S. if Dr. Oz said it.

    He's like Jesus......except real. Some people mock because they don't understand/worship enough.

    Me too! I love that Dr Phil episode where he had a 12 year old child on and said that he exhibited the signs of a serial killer to be. I'm sure that kid had a great life after that episode...

    Dr. Phil cracks me up sometimes though. "Lady, you're NOT the victim here. You're the perpetrator!" :laugh:

    lol

    Yeah he has a degree and everything and he's a real doctor... however, he seems to have "sold out."

    He gets paid to endorse products that aren't necessarily a good idea.

    I find it pretty sad because he took an oath to help people be healthy... and yet he advertises whatever product will pay him to do so...

    There's a lot of "feel good" stuff on the show, which attracts people to it, and then he advertises something, everybody buys it, and he gets a massive payout.

    :ohwell:

    Anyone on TV with 'Dr' in front of their name usually sucks. Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil, Dr. Drew. Who remembers Dr. Laura?

    He is a doctor and a surgeon correct, that does NOT make hims a nutritionist or a fitness instructor. They are totally different schooling and when all he does is try and push you to buy 15 different pills a day something has got to turn the light bulb on and say wtf?!
