Comments on: ICD-10 to Include Code for ‘Dr. Oz Says,’ Automatic Trigger for Level 5 Visit https://gomerblog.com/2014/11/icd-10-2/ Earth's Finest Medical News Site for Healthcare Professionals Sat, 20 Apr 2019 20:12:57 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Laurie40 https://gomerblog.com/2014/11/icd-10-2/#comment-66454 Fri, 23 Jan 2015 01:41:00 +0000 http://gomerblog.com/?p=7217#comment-66454 I’d be more outraged at the scheduled “10 minute” appointment …shameful.

I know people who buy all this Dr. Oz crap, and they end up with bigger health problems because of it. Whether it’s because they try the herbal crap that doesn’t do a thing, and they end up sicker, or because they unnecessarily go to the doctor thinking they have some rare disease, it’s bad medicine.

Shows that purport to give health advice, medical advice, or psychological advice should be banned from television, because far too many unintelligent people fall for this BS. Yes, that’s right — if you watch Dr. Oz, you are not an intelligent person.

Thats 100% untrue. Do the majority of diet pills work, anti aging creams, scar creams/fader? Snake oil will change and evolve to suit the buyers, but it is still snake oil. No, and in some categories none of them work at all, hope and magical thinking is more powerful than you seem to grasp.

Everything else you say has no bearing on either the topic at hand or what you subsequently said, its just red herrings and actually serve to further undermine your position, which seems based on wanting it to be true because you either find this Oz likeable or one of his products.

I had to do exactly that once. Because the “professionals” were so cock sure they were right. If I hadn’t stood my ground and forced them to *listen* and literally shove information under their arrogant noses I would be dead. It’s nice that you’re so certain of your “expertise”. How many of your patients have died because of it?

I wrote what I meant.. You parrot what you think will validate your POV.

Good job on realizing that Fox promotes myth as fact. Soon, you will realize that the same is true for CNN and MSNBC. If it’s on TV, advertisers control what content is allowed on the air.
