With great, non-trad medical ideas he backs with real science, who has learned how to communicate effectively with stay-home folks and recently took his own show instead of poaching on Oprah's, where he got his start as a mass-media dude. Effective: as in, people who dig him do actually try what he suggests, including needed (overdue) medical testing. With enough patient-ed to back up their interactions with managed-healthcare salespeople wearing doc's coats. :~) ~S~ |

I appreciate the input of everyone and I know he's certainly not the most offensive person on tv, probably well meaning; but he just makes me want to GAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. Becca, I'm in a minority too in the Oprah camp: tho I don't dislike Oprah, but I never LIKED her either, and could never sit through an entire show of hers. |

Talking this evening about brain health. He actually did a pretty good job, not getting to technical, but in his efficiency, highlighting things people can do to keep their brains fit. Then I turned it off, for the next segment. Not bad. Not one I'll watch regularly, because I don't tend to watch many of those kinds of programs, but not bad. SRS |
