Dr. Oz Shouldn’t Be a Senator—or a Doctor

For years, his fellow professors at Columbia and other medical professionals have demanded Oz be expelled from the faculty of the university due to his constant promotion of quackery and non-scientific nonsense. They stated the following back in 2015 -

“Dr. Oz has repeatedly shown disdain for science and for evidence-based medicine, as well as baseless and relentless opposition to the genetic engineering of food crops,” the doctors wrote. “Worst of all, he has manifested an egregious lack of integrity by promoting quack treatments and cures in the interest of personal financial gain.”


In 2022, Columbia University Medical Center finally sent Dr. Oz packing and scrubbed any references to him off of their website -- which was long overdue.

Dr. Oz stopped seeing patients years before his Senate campaign. Back in the 1990s Dr. Oz may have been a talented heart surgeon -- but similar to Rudy Giuliani, Dr Oz has spun completely downhill pushing fanciful nonsense and promoting his own celebrity to earn money --- rather than staying focused on science-based medicine. A point that was outlined by his surgical colleagues, Jerry Whitworth and Eric Rose, who cut all ties Oz due to Oz's non-scientific medical nonsense and Oz's constant promotion of a media circus.
Yeah I have no idea, not my area of expertise... but anyone that can transplant a heart... is no dummy. Can AOC do that? She's a nut too.

We keep seeing repeated recitations of Oz's resume and work history.

Oh I see. One way to avoid having your work history criticized if you are a dem is to simply not have one. Yeh. Oz moved around a bit for WORK - to New Jersey etc causing him some campaign problems. But Fetidman avoided work and anything related to it so, what a guy.

He bought his house from his sister for a dollar. That is what the IRS calls a "gift". Did she/he pay gift tax on all value of the house above $20,000? Nevermind.
 
Oz has been funded by other people his entire life.

Not to worry, a family who supports minor molesters is coming the aid of Oz in fund-raising.

Matt Gaetz's In-Laws Are Hosting a Big-Dollar Fundraiser for Dr. Oz
Raising campaign money via the brother-in-law of a sex pest is certainly a choice for Oz, who’s said lots of creepy things about women himself

There’s a $5,000-a-plate-mininum fundraising dinner tonight for New Jersey resident and Pennsylvania Senate nominee Mehmet Oz, and the top-billed event chair is none other than Matt Gaetz’s brother-in-law.

You’ll recall that Gaetz (R-Fl.) is under investigation for alleged sex trafficking, statutory rape of a 17-year-old, and obstruction of justice, and reportedly sought a pre-emptive pardon for those crimes. The event in Santa Ana, California, is chaired by Palmer Luckey, the billionaire founder of Oculus VR and brother of Gaetz’s wife, Ginger

Attending a fundraiser hosted by the in-laws of a sex pest congressman is certainly a choice for Oz, a candidate who’s said lots of very creepy things about women and sex, himself. The event comes as Oz faces scrutiny following a Jezebel report that he oversaw scientific experiments that lead to the deaths and torture of more than 300 dogs and hundreds of other animals. Vanity Fair referred to it as “puppygate.”

Here is the flier for tonight’s event, which also features National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman Sen. Rick Scott (Fl.) and Nevada Senate nominee Adam Laxalt:

Example number 3000 -- Oz is not fit to be a doctor.

Dr. Oz promoted a diet with 500 calories per day and pregnancy hormone supplements
https://www.insider.com/dr-oz-promoted-dangerous-500-calorie-diet-with-pregnancy-hormones-2022-10
  • Dr. Mehmet Oz, a popular TV doctor now running for Senate, has promoted risky weight loss products.
  • He advocated for a very low-calorie diet with hormone supplements, according to the Washington Post.
  • Experts say the so-called HCG diet can cause side effects like blood clots, mood swings, and fluid build-up
Dr. Mehmet Oz, the former heart surgeon and TV doctor currently running for the US Senate, previously promoted a risky diet plan involving as little as 500 calories per day and doses of a pregnancy hormone, the Washington Post reports.

Oz has previously faced other criticism from medical experts who accused the celebrity doctor of "an egregious lack of integrity by promoting quack treatments and cures in the interest of personal financial gain."

His political platform has emphasized his background as "America's Doctor" (per his podcast), prompting opponent John Fetterman and other critics to undermine his campaign by questioning his past medical advice. "'Dr.' Oz had a big platform and he used it to promote products that could hurt people," Fetterman wrote in a recent tweet.

The HCG diet is named after a hormone produced during pregnancy called human chorionic gonadotropin, which proponents say can aid weight loss by reducing hunger, balancing hormones, and maintaining muscle.

The diet was featured on "The Dr. Oz Show" in 2011 and revisited again in 2012, despite research and even a warning from the FDA suggesting it is ineffective for weight loss.

Specific risks of the HCG diet include blood clots, fluid build-up, and swelling of the breast tissue in boys and men (known as gynecomastia), according to the Mayo Clinic.

Very low-calorie diets can cause dangerous health problems such as stress on the internal organs, including the heart, disruption of the metabolism, and a weakened immune system, in addition to fatigue and mood problems like depression and irritability, a registered dietitian previously told Insider.

Weight loss supplements, too, are risky, with research suggesting the majority of products don't work and can have serious side effects. Supplements are also unregulated, and can contain unexpected additives or unreliable doses.

Oz did present some caveats to the diet, such as recommending a doctor's guidance before eating fewer than 1,200 calories a day, and featuring an expert who voiced concerns about HCG, according to the Post. The show's website later published an article debunking the diet.

But on air, Oz suggested the diet might still be viable despite the lack of evidence for its effectiveness, and studies finding negative results.

"I'm intrigued enough to think that people may benefit if the HCG is used correctly," he said in one clip.

Other misleading medical clains and dubious weight loss products featured on "The Dr. Oz Show" from 2009 to 2021 include green coffee bean extract and an herb called garcinia cambogia which research has linked to liver damage.

A spokesperson for the Oz campaign, Brittany Yanick, told the Post that Oz never sold the products himself and pressented a variety of viewpoints and conversations on the show.

"It's idiotic and preposterous to imply that he shared the same beliefs and opinions as every guest on his show, or that having someone on his show constitutes a blanket endorsement of their beliefs," Yanick said.
