No Dr. House?

And Oz should be right on top of the Run For Your Life because he’s not fictional and should know better.

Doctor House would be top right but partly because you wouldn't need to run very far.

That depends on what drugs he's on

Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil have done far more harm than Dr. Pepper could ever aspire to.

I would trust Hannibal Lector more than Oz, frankly.

At least Lecter is honest about who he is!

House is basically overlapping McCoy

Astoundly, McCoy has a better bedside manner.

I don't think McCoy is ever depicted as particularly brilliant. He's just a competent doctor from a time with more advanced technology.

I don't know, he came up with novel cures for things multiple times on planets never before visited. He did it in Miri despite the virus being completely novel.
