Dr. Oz Tackles Ebola Outbreak During Season 6 Premiere

With the West African Ebola outbreak dominating headlines, Dr. Mehmet Oz will kick off the sixth season of his self-titled talk show by focusing on the deadly virus.  The Monday, Sept. 8 season premiere,  featuring Dr. Sanjay Gupta, will launch a season-long Dr. Oz initiative of "Bringing Healthy Back".

Oz will also face a personal medical crisis — the Board of Health notified him of high levels of mercury poisoning in his system! Just how good of a patient does the physician make? Then look for a visit to "Dr. Oz's Healthy Heart Clinic". Watch a promo for the season premiere of Dr. Oz below!

Season 6 of Dr. Oz premieres on Monday. The show airs weekdays in syndication.
