He sells snake oil. On TV. Legally.

He's a failed doctor who got his own TV show thanks to...Oprah?

Dr. Phil was the shrink, he's a (was) medical doctor.

Well then Twitter doesn't seem to be the audience he is looking for.

Certainly not, he takes advantage of dumb old ladies. The twitter crowd is too smart for the likes of him.

And that's saying something, considering how stupid twitter can be.

I think he's still a practicing surgeon, but not for sure.

He's licensed. I don't know how much surgery he's got time for with all his other shit.

Dr. Oz responds to criticism.
According to the surgeon, he's been told by doctors that patients often ask questions and bring up topics Dr. Oz has discussed on his show.

I'm sure jury members bring up CSI shit to the judge and lawyers all the time. Doesn't mean it has one goddamned thing to do with real forensic shit.
