Dr Phil's son, Jay McGraw, has been accused of destroying a man's life after tricking him onto his show to exploit a condition that left him with a disfigured penis, Star magazine has exclusively learned.

In 2010, Tyler Bowling, 24, took Jay's production company, Stage 29, to court accusing the company of working with a cosmetic surgeon to bully him into appearing on the show The Doctors and strong arming him to reveal his embarrassing condition to a studio audience and thousands of viewers.

Tyler claims after years of suffering from the condition Pearly Penile Papules -- which the court papers describe as "not dangerous (but) unsightly and emotionally destabilizing," he reached out to cosmetic surgeon Dr. William Groff for laser treatment.
