Dr. Oz "Honored" to Take Over Oprah's Time Slots
By Jillian Bowe on July 03, 2011
"I don't feel pressured, I feel honored by the spot. I feel a responsibility to give to the audience what she has done so beautiful for 25 years. You really learn this when you're around her a lot. She recognized people don't change what they do based on what they know. They change on what they feel, when you get that visceral awareness in your heart, it's important to do it.

That marriage creates a trust that folks will follow you to."
