WE tv is heading to Miami. Today, the network announced they’ve ordered a new reality series called Dr. Miami.
The unscripted series will follow Dr. Michael Salzhauer, “a top Miami plastic surgeon who has attracted millions of followers by sharing his life, his practice and his procedures on social media platforms including Snapchat, Instagram and Twitter.”
From WE tv president Marc Juris:
We love this show because Dr. Salzhauer is a completely unique and authentic individual who is at the top of his profession and using social media in an innovative and powerful way. Plastic surgery shows have become a staple of unscripted TV, but a surgeon using Snapchat and other social platforms to literally bring fans into the operating room represents a bold and fresh twist that connects old and new media and will give us additional opportunities to attract and engage WE tv viewers.”
