Sony's Dr. Oz returns for season four on Monday, Sept. 10, with a series of shows focused on women and their health, with an appearance from First Lady Michelle Obama, fresh off of her electrifying speech at the Democratic National Convention, on Wednesday, Sept. 12.


Oz will premiere on Monday with an episode that takes on all of those who are falsely using Dr. Oz's name to promote their fat-burning products, and going so far as to confront executives from Amazon, Facebook and eBay about these "rogue marketers."

On Tuesday (Sept. 11) and Thursday (Sept. 13), Oz gets even closer to his audience. On Tuesday, audience members will don purple medical gloves like Oz's and handle four key human organs, while Oz walks them through how to improve their health from the inside out. On Thursday, Oz does one of his favorite segments, taking on people's most embarrassing medical questions.

Finally, on Friday (Sept. 14), Oz goes on the road, taking 50 women from his studio audience to the Miraval Resort and Spa in Tucson, Ariz., to rest, rejuvenate and figuratively unpack their baggage.
