Who is Dr. Oz and why do new members keep asking him/her questions on Mahalo?

I don't get it!

Is there a "Dr. Oz" category or something that people are mistaking for the real Dr. Oz? Whoever that is...

Shed some light on this for me please! ;)

Dr. Mehmet C. Oz is a popular television doctor here in the United States. The doctor has many high credentials and original publications. A good short bio is available ~~>Click Here. He got his start on television doing the health segment (Ask Dr. Oz) on the Oprah Winfrey Show but now his popularity has grown to the level that he has his own television program, The Dr. Oz Show, dealing with common health issues for men and women. Mahalo also has a popular and successful page called Ask Dr. Oz. I have seen at least one of these questions and it did seem as the asker might have thought they were actually asking Dr. Oz but Mahalo has no affiliation with the show or the doctor except for the page(s) managed here on subjects related to him.

I think that's very misleading, for the page to be calle "Ask Dr. Oz"! :s

Yeah, I don't get it either. I know who Dr. Oz is - I've seen him on TV, but I don't understand why people are addressing questions directly to him on Mahalo.
