Quoting Roswitha: Dr Oz authored three New York Times bestsellers including You: The Owner's Manual |
I hope the rest of his work is not as dumb as this book. The fact that it became a bestseller only means that 90% of the population must be a bit  . The language he uses in this book is clearly directed to masses, for example, he writes that vagina is like a garage and penis is like a car... :-S. This is an example of the primitive way in which he discusses various issues (and sexuality in this particular case). I couldn't get past one page of this book.

Watch Oprah!
He calls himself Doctor Oz (as in Wizard of...) rather than Öz, as presumably the Yankees cant pronounce it right!
It seems the way to get famous is be on Oprah. Remember Dr Phil?

Who exactly named this man one of the best doctor's in the USA? If Oprah Winfrey says someone is great then all kinds of people fall in line to say..."Ooohhhh yes, look how GREAT he is!
Dr. Phil is a crack pot! He tried to "help" Britney Spears by exploiting her mental illness and trying to do a show around it.

What does Dr. Oz think about the frequent presentation of successful Turks who live abroad as 'brilliant Turks' by the Turkish media? The reason for our asking this question to him, is that thanks to especially The Hurriyet Daily Newspaper and lastly Vatan, which offers his book as a promotion, and as a result Oz appears in the newspapers at least as often as the prime minister even though he lives abroad. Oz does not complain about this mission. "I feel myself as a representative of good will and I am proud of carrying this title on behalf of Turkey. Then, we ask whether he wants to return to his country, of which he is very proud to represent? No, he responds, saying that there are more opportunities in the US in terms of advanced medicine. Since the conversation is about the Turkey, we remind him that he attended a dinner in the US given for the honor of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and we ask him of his impressions. He says:" Both the prime minister and his wife are impressive people. I saw that Erdogan is ambitious to make Turkey a successful country, as it was in the past.
