Foxtel's W secures Dr Oz first for Australia

The hottest new talk show in America will come to FOXTEL this July when The Dr Oz Show premieres on W.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, known for his five years as the medical expert on mega-hit The Oprah Winfrey Show, is a trusted health expert, best-selling author, and world-renowned cardiac surgeon.

The hour-long series aims to help viewers live healthier and happier lives and is co-produced by Winfrey’s Harpo Productions and Sony Pictures Television.
W channel manager Penny Win said “We are thrilled to have Dr Oz join our powerhouse daytime line-up. He is the doctor that everyone would love to have looking after them and I am confident that our viewers will embrace this exciting new series.

“Each episode is packed with potentially life-saving information in what Dr Oz. calls an ‘embarrassment free zone’ where nothing is off limits or out of bounds. W viewers will enjoy the variety of topics covered and presented in a fascinating and entertaining way.”

The Dr Oz Show is produced in New York, enabling Dr Oz to film the show and continue to perform surgeries one day a week.
