Dr. Pezzi's television appearances & offers

Offers:

  • One producer thought my ER stories would spawn a captivating show of unusual but real ER cases, but he was opposed to reenacting the stories.  Instead, he wanted me to carry a hidden camera as I worked in the ER.  Two problems with that proposal:  1) It took over a decade for me to acquire my collection of stories, and it would take another ten years to capture an equal number on videotape.  I'm only interested in stories which are unusual and pique people's curiosity because of some intriguing element to the case.  Run-of-the-mill ER cases bore me to death.  If you think they're interesting, you don't know what you're missing.  2) Most people would take a dim view of being secretly videotaped.  Some people might give their consent afterwards, but people involved in strange cases are very unlikely to permit airing of their videotape.  Consequently, I think the only realistic option is to reenact the cases using actors so that the patient's identity is kept secret.
  • Another television producer read my first book (Fascinating Health Secrets) and loved the way I presented the information.  To quote him, "Dr. Pezzi, there are thousands of books on health, but no one writes like you."  He thought my style made a normally dull subject very interesting, and one which would attract viewers who would not ordinarily watch a health show.  This project is pending, so I'll keep you posted.
  • A radio producer wanted me to be the host of a radio show on health, but this guy was certifiably insane and anyone who chose to work with him would have to be nuts.  I passed, and I don't regret it.
  • Lisa Paul, a producer with the now-defunct television talk show The Gayle King Show read my first book (Fascinating Health Secrets) and liked it so much that she wanted me to appear on their show. After Lisa contacted me, I began watching that show. Every guest I saw was one of those ultra-beautiful Hollywood celebrities, obviously selected because of their looks, not because they had anything especially interesting to say. Thus, I wondered where I fit into this lineup of pulchritude. The answer? I didn't. After Lisa viewed a videotape of me on TV, she apparently concluded that I didn't meet their standards of beauty, because she never called me after that. (Since Gayle King is Oprah's best friend, I suppose this blows my chances of ever appearing on Oprah's show!) This fixation with appearance brings up a related topic (The Attractive Expert Syndrome) that I discussed on another web site.
  • In 2005, I received so many offers (Untold Stories of the ER, Discovery Health Channel's Dr. Know, Discovery Channel's Is Your House Out to Get You?, etc.) that I couldn't keep up, primarily because my Mom died earlier in the year. That put me so far behind in my work that I could not respond as I normally would have.

Appearances:

  • A television production company from Great Britain contacted me toward the end of 2005 and asked me to be the co-host of a new series about sex. To make a long story short, I declined to travel there, so they flew here to interview me.
  • In the early '90s, Channel 12 (Flint, MI) interviewed me about pending Michigan legislation that would limit liability for ER doctors. I told the story behind the story on this page.

ContactMeFree is a dream come true for anyone involved in online dating. If you have your profile posted on a personals site but don't pay for a membership, you know how limited you are in terms of being able to send or receive messages. You probably assume that those limitations disappear if you pay for a membership. Guess what? You are still far more limited than you realize. Frankly, if you knew how limited you were, you would be furious that the personals site was charging you $20 to $50 per month and still keeping the shackles on you! The person who created ContactMeFree was so outraged by those limitations that he decided to do something about it. So he did!

You know that writer's block you get when you sit down to write the essay portion of your personal profile for online dating? And you know the difficulty you have trying to think of a catchy headline? Well, MyProfileWriter allows you to create a profile essay and headline without typing, just by clicking!
