Well, there's a difference between a doctor/psychiatrist who help people/patients and one who turn his profession into business and is only after money and public recognition...
Like this dude, ok, cool he has a Ph.D., but Y is he on TV?!!! helping poeple feel better!! or Oprah, Y is she on TV!!! All I know is when i watch her show which is only the first 10 minutes.... i feel frustrated for the fact that she ALREADY ahve money, y is she still working!! and buying her audience cars, and jackets and whatever... amking people's dream come true, just so people would say OPRAH made it happen, or the best person in showbusiness is OPRAH... welll i don't know her as a person, so i don't know if i'd like her. But i'm sick of seeing shows like these, and like so-called reality tv shows like laguna ***** and stuff. I mean, COME ON!!!! who watchs these shows.. Tv should be for entertaining, not to know how some 16 years' old groups are spending their not-deserved money or what kind of mental problem does a mother have for going with her daughter on every date, or what suicidal thoughts did some freakin' star have..... Oh, boohoo, I feel sorry for those so-called people for having millions of dollars and some of them (CRY) over not being able to get into some stupid club... and the other have all the money in the world, and the life that she couldn't even dream of in her wildest dreams and then she goes and makes some decisions that are obviously STUPID....
Well, that wasn't the subject, but YES, HE IS A FAKE. He does it all for the money and for the fame.....

There are a lot of people that do not like Dr Phil because he is a very smart, common sense kinda guy. .and rich now. Most people I know and meet almost hate others who have a lot of common sense and don't make the mistakes and bad or wrong decisions they might.
WHY? I have no idea really. Maybe just something as plain envy or jealousy.
also,i don't believe he is a "fake" bc he is still on TV with one of the highest rated daytime shows and fakes don't last long or evn get onot TV and have their own shows watched by millions every day.
That said, everyone has their thoughts and opinions and yours is valid.
His first book LIFE STRATEGIES(2000), is an interesting read.
a partial bioraphy of DrPhil McGraw..
Psychologist, life strategist, television host. Born in 1950 in Oklahoma, Dr. Phil was raised both there and in Texas. He grew up to become a 6-foot-4-inch linebacker and was awarded a football scholarship to the University of Tulsa. He finished his degree at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas. Later, in just four years, he picked up his master's and Ph.D. in psychology at the University of North Texas. In 1979, Dr. Phil opened a practice with his father, who earned his psychology degree at the age of 40.
After going into private practice, Dr. Phil soon realized one-on-one therapy wasn't for him. He then launched a popular self-motivation seminar called Pathways. And in 1989, he built a company called Courtroom Sciences. The venture helped trial lawyers build cases using psychology by conducting mock trials, behavioral analysis, jury selection and mediation.

Dr. Phil is not a fake (he has the proper credentials to do what he is doing), but lately he's gotten a little too pompous. His show resembles Jerry Springer's show more and more every day. I've stopped watching. I liked him better when he offered solutions to problems the average person might be having. He overdid it with the multiracial Dr. Phil's house stuff and the father accused of molesting his baby. Trash! Shame on you, Dr. Phil.

Dr. Phil is an embarrassment to daytime TV. You might as well call Maury Povich an outstanding journalist.

He has no credentials. He's just a smart guy who knows how to make money. He tells what people need to hear, that's it. It's your fault if you fall for it, not his.
