    I'd go to another doctor for a second opinion. He should have told her to NEVER watch Dr. Oz.

    I need this Dr.s name - STAT. My mother is a crazy goon when it comes to Dr. Oz and all his "tips".

    One time, just to get her to actually put some real thought into something I was telling her, I lied and said that I had read it in an article quoting Dr.Oz :blushing:

    Seriously though...why do people put so much value on him over anyone else? Is it the Opera effect?

    That's awesome. Our doctor wants to shoot him.

    My mom quotes "Dr. Oz" to me non-stop! She refuses to listen to her GP about exercising, eating right, and taking care of herself but she ordered some kind of mango seed pills that Dr. Oz advertised to help you lose weight.

    It's so much stuff to take in, write down, try to find, etc, etc, you're too confused with it all...it's craziness!

    Wonderful!

    I no longer watch his show. Just like I had to quit Dr. Phil years ago!

    Dr. Oz only seems to pitch products anymore!

    My mother is Dr. Google/Phil/Oz/insert new doctor on tv.

    My sister is the same way as our mother, it is annoying.

    I think it's a version of Stockholm or Munchhausen.

    My doc gets upset because I wait so long to get things checked out. I don't register pain because I think it's a hypochondria thing I picked up from my mom. Luckily I am the opposite of a Dr. Anything believer.

    And lastly...Dr. Ox talks about poop way too much.

    My future mother-in-law is from Turkey, so anything he says might as well have been handed down by god.

    Funny, I have only watched his show once and it told me my I was fat and could not lose weight (my medications add 40lbs). I was hoping for a magic pill. :cry:

    Hah! Brilliant. The question is... will she listen or does she value him so much that she'll choose Dr. Oz over a real, live doctor?

    my mom used to quote dr oz to me about various health matters - she also smoked 1-2 packs a day. I finally told her "dr oz says you shouldnt smoke" and she stopped quoting him >.>

    Not that I particularly care, but am I the only one who not only has NEVER watched Dr. Oz, but also has no idea what he says that we should not be listening to? No need to enlighten me. Just find it fascinating that so many people know people who watch that stuff.
