Let’s not forget that Oprah also brought us Dr. Oz.
I remember this guy. I remember giving him way too much praise back when I was a stupid right wing bigot. I regret that deeply, he is a horrible person and this just goes to show it even more.
Really happy to read something like that, and want to give you a hearty welcome - or whatever the correct term in English is…
Great to have you :-)
I really wish people would stop referring to Phil McGraw as a doctor. He holds a PhD, and therefore is as much of a doctor as your physical therapist. Although I would argue that the physical therapist is more of a doctor given their knowledge being more directly related to medicine.
Phil McGraw has not held a medical license or license related to the field of his PhD since 2006.
I will now step down from my soap box
While that doesn’t make him a medical doctor, that is still a doctor and therefore while the way he’s using it might be a tad misleading, it’s still correct.
Side note, do physiotherapists in the US require a PhD? In Australia it’s just an undergrad degree.
I know, I know.
I’m well aware that this is what I’m doing:
But while he’s not incorrect to use that title, he wields it as a badge of authority. It’s also not incorrect to call him Phil McGraw, and doesn’t give him that authority. So that’s why I’m an old man yelling at a cloud about this.
Also, PTs don’t require a doctorate degree. But some do carry it.
I mean, I’m a doctor in the same way that he is.
Dr. alcaran here. Phill is full of shit
I am an imaginary doctor
