A Psychiatrist needs to attend Medical school, complete that and then specialise in mental health and welfare.

Dr Phil never went to Medical school BUT he did complete a degree in Psychology.

He's a Psychologist. A Psychologist is not technically a Doctor but they still do help people with their problems.

Dr Phil can't prescribe medications like a Psychiatrist does.

I think he 'became' Dr Phil because it sounded more powerful and influentual.

He got a Ph.D in some academic discipline, I don't know what though.

He's a shrink whom Oprah first met during her trial in Amarillo, where Dr. Phil is from.

He's a real psychologist, with a real diploma and everything.

Definitely. He is a psychiatrist though but that's still 8 years. I couuld be wrong but I doubt Oprah would've promoted and used him so much on her show though. I think he is so obnoxious! Google him to find out for sure.

I assume he is a real doctor but there has been so many rumors floating around ever since his attempted 'intervention' with Britney Spears. People were starting to say that he isn't

He's a real doctor.
