Buddy Oz, is the male fur child of Dr. Oz, and has just written a book "The Canine Plan for Health and Fitness." Next week, Kitty Kat Oz, feline female fur child of Dr. Oz, will present her book "Looking Through the Window on a Sunny Day." Dr. Gupta, is also working on a new project titled "How can I advance my pocketbook through CNN, and other Corporations?" I'm done being a legitimate physician. I can't believe how corrupt this nation has become. Everything seems tainted!
