Y'all ready for another TRUTH BOMB tweet thread about Mehmet Oz?
Yeah you are.
Tonight, in honor of Bryce Harper's HR (Mehmet, he plays for the Phillies... you're welcome) - we're gonna belt one too.
Theme: #Oz lies.
A thread.

Recently, a Columbia professor dished that #oz tried to get him to lie to the press.
You see, Ozzy-pants was revealed as a doggie killer at Columbia (well documented) - so Oz called his old "pal" and said:
dude, lie & tell them it wasn't me!

but it gets worse!
Oz said (same cite) - "tell 'em it was the veterinarians!"
So let's recap: he tells a professor to lie, and then he throws the little guy under the bus. Poor vets, what did they do to deserve that?
Nasty little feller.
Check it:

All this nasty lying led a pediatric surgeon at Columbia to say, quite literally, on the record, that #Oz "was full of shit" and "a total phony" -
how bad do you have to be to have a PEDIATRIC doc, of all people, diss you this badly?
5/16
Y'all ain't ready for us today!
How about his lies where he used his "MD" to get poor sods to trust medical advice from his crappy show?
He said raspberry ketones were a "miracle in a bottle" to burn fat. Yup, ZERO evidence for that. Zip. Nada.

How about when he advised (same cite), as a DOCTOR, that astrology could be useful to guide your health?
survey says: BZZZZ!
What the actual F***, Ozzy-wozzy? These are real humans you are lying to, it's not right.
Us docs are trying to help, and you're trying to hurt.

and then, another lizard move (same cite):
Mehmet says that green coffee extract is the weight loss cure. Wait, we thought is was raspberry ketones? So confused.
The catch? Dear friends, read on....
8/16
Oz's friend, Lindsey Duncan, who makes the bogus extract?
Yup, FTC went after him and he had to pay 9 MILLION bucks for this fraud -
our question:
did money exchange hands between Ozzy and his bud? Why haven't journalists pursued that, mmm?

9/16
since the BS detector was off the scale, scientists decided to quantify his lies -
guess what?
over TWO THIRDS of all claims on his show were based on ZERO evidence - us doctors call those STINKIN' LIES

10/16
How about his show's "medical advisory board"? Sounds legit?
Naah, bruh.
Board included people with no medical training - Claims they made included drinking onion juice for flu & subscription meal plans for curing cancer.
holy grift, batman!

11/16
Board also supported herbal Rx for COVID-19 - how many people DIED following this awful advice from "doctor" Oz's show?
Remember his defense at the debate: "oh, it was just a TV show!"
tell that to someone's widow. Grrrr.
12/16
in fact, the advisory board was so awful that one doctor just couldn't do it anymore.
Dr. Fuhrman up and quit. "I want nothing to do with him" he said.

13/16
so let's recap:
columbia doc says Oz is "full of shit"
Oz had a med advisory board full of posers
he pawned off bogus treatments on unsuspecting americans (maybe your family members!)
his biz associates get massive gov't fines
people -
WE. DO. NOT. WANT. THIS.
14/16
over 300 doctors in PA have joined up to warn our patients, our families, and YOU:
Oz is basically a mini-Trump. Rich dude who does whatever he can to get more sweet Benjamins. At your expense. Unlike Trump, he does it with his "doctor" title.
And he doesn't care.
15/16
Friends, the more us doctors research this guy, the more we are left with two thoughts:
this guy is far more horrible than we realized
how come he has come this far? And not gotten tarnished?
hmmm, sounds like someone else we know....
16/16
Pennsylvania, we are better than this. We deserve better than this.
Please, can we show the US that we aren't gonna fall for this New Jersey carpetbagger? Your doctors implore you.
