The president-elect's proposed cabinet includes Dr. Mehmet Oz, a physician, TV host—and multimillionaire.

Oz, who Donald Trump earlier this month chose to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, has an estimated net worth of $200 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is part of the Department of Health and Human Services, which Trump has tapped Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to lead.

Financial disclosures from that campaign showed investments in big tech and healthcare companies and an extensive real-estate portfolio.
