When I last saw my cardiologist, he wanted to know if I was going to ask him about something I saw on Dr. Oz too. Seems his last 3 patients before me told him about some advice on heart issues from Dr. Oz that was contrary to my cardiologist’s advice. My poor doctor was exasperated by this TV shill and even more so that his patients were listening to Oz instead of him.
IMHO, my doctor knows me far better than Dr. Oz or any other TV charlatan. He has my family health history, my personal health history and is aware of my current health condition. So why shouldn’t I listen to the doctor who knows me instead of some guy on TV who doesn’t?
