Oprah sure can pick them. Who's worse, Dr Phil or Doctor Oz?
Dr. Phil is a fraud.
Dr. Oz is a board-certified heart surgeon.

By training, yes. By licensure, no.
McGraw stopped renewing his Texas license to practice psychology in 2006.[48] The California Board of Psychology has determined that he does not need a license in that state because he does not practice psychology on his show.

As far as he's concerned, a distinction without a difference.

That's right, and he's making a TON more money doing what he's doing rather than practicing his trade (Just ask D2 what a doctorate in psychology earns).
If you don't have a license, you're not a doctor. You're just someone who's very well educated in a field.
It's really a distinction WITH a difference.

Well, not quite.
Whether you have a license to practice, you're still a doc. BTW, quit slacking, check to make sure your license is good and go terrorize some residents...

Doctor Octopus is not. Dr Strange is. But I don’t think he keeps his license up either.

They need to discredit him, and fast. Instant name recognition and an outsider.

A friend (MD PhD) of mine has known him since residency and says he’s smart AF and was a superb doctor. She disagrees with some stands he’s taken over the years but still is a fan. Even chose him to operate on her father.

As long as he's an elected Republican, I don't care if he has cloven hooves and horns on his head.

I haven't been following the Pennsylvania senate race all that closely other than to be aware that the Democrat candidate (Fetterman) had a stroke a while ago, and at his last public appearance, he appeared, well, Biden-esque.
OTOH, I know little about Oz (R-Oprah) other than he
iswas a credible board-certified heart surgeon. His medical credentials seem solid and he has had multiple academic appointments.BUt...he's said some pretty strange things, which make me wonder.

It’s easy to imagine an objective score for beauty which had high correlation with subjective scores. But the more sperm for ugly people thing is wacky.
