Dr. Oz revisited | Science-Based Medicine

SBM have been very critical of Dr. Mehmet Oz, who through his relentless self-promotion (and with more than a little help from his patron Oprah Winfrey) has somehow become known as "America's doctor." Back in the early days, when he was the regular medical expert on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Dr. Oz was at least tolerable. Much of what he discussed was reasonably science-based and even sensible, mainly advice to eat better and get more exercise, which is what most primary care doctors tell their patients every day. True, he did "integrate" some non-evidence-based therapies in with the evidence-based therapies, which was not good given how a typical viewer wouldn't be able to tell where the science-based advice ended and the magical thinking began, but for the most part, even on Oprah's show, he kept his woo somewhat in check. At least, there were boundaries beyond which he wouldn't pass, even though Dr. Oz's wife is a reiki master and he has been a fan of reiki (gaining fame for inviting reiki masters into his operating room during cardiac surgery), "energy healing" quackery, and an array of other "alternative" medicine practices since at least the 1990s and has testified in front of NCCAM patron Senator Tom Harkin's committee to promote "complementary and alternative medicine" (CAM) or, as its advocates like to call it now, "integrative medicine."
