Want to feel better?
Get some sleep.
That’s one of the tips Dr. Mehmet Oz told a sold-out crowd Wednesday at a fundraiser for the Children’s Hospital at Erlanger. Oz, a star of daytime television, radio talk show host, author, speaker and practicing heart surgeon, made a special trip to the Embassy Suites in East Brainerd for the event, volunteering his time for the $40 million hospital, which is set to break ground in 2017.
Dalton resident Judy Kotch, a retired school bus monitor who watches over her three grandchildren, said she appreciated Oz’s appearance and his message.
“I love Dr. Oz,” she said. “I watch his show all of the time, and I liked his message to the audience about getting enough sleep and eating well.”
