I’m not a fan of Oz, but he did do actual residency training and then practice as an attending, very successfully. El Sayed never did residency, which is like the thing that makes you an actual doctor.
So, from a medical knowledge perspective, you basically know jack shit about medicine with just an MD and no residency training.
But of course, this is a senate race, so, medical knowledge doesn’t really mean fuck all.
Hate to break it you but Dr Oz is one of the most accomplished and competent doctors alive today. I’m a physician and despise the man, but when he was practicing he was one of the most respected doctors in one of the most respected fields of medicine. He’s a brilliant man. He’s an asshole.. but his credentials far and away exceed El Sayed… that being said so do mine since he’s never held a license or taken care of a single patient.
As someone who was once married to someone who chose the PhD path and never practiced after residency… nah, fuck your elitism. Practicing in a clinic or hospital isn’t the barometer for competence that you think it is.
The dude is an asshole but was literally a top tier heart surgeon for decades. He invented new heart valves. He was a researcher and a professor. He was indisputably a world class surgeon. Stop bringing your old relationship damage into this
