In reply to the discussion: Meet the medical student who wants to bring down Dr. Oz [View all]giftedgirl77
(4,713 posts)5. By allowing woo people on his show to peddle their products...
& swindle people out of money he is no better than Pat Robertson. Everyday he has bullshit conartists on his show claiming to talk to dead people or peddle miracle weight loss pills that have been proven to do no good. Yes,I would say he is doing harm & as a medical doctor last I checked he took an oath not to do so. So at this point the guy has a choice actually practice medicine as a real doctor or just play one on t.v. which should require a disclaimer that his show is full of shit.
