NEW YORK: WE tv has greenlit the new series Dr. Miami, starring Dr. Michael Salzhauer, one of Miami’s top plastic surgeons.

Salzhauer has attracted millions of followers by sharing his life, his practice and his procedures on social media platforms including Snapchat, Instagram and Twitter. The network ordered six one-hour episodes expected to premiere next year.

“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,” said Marc Juris, WE tv’s president. “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.”

“I am thrilled to be a member of the WE tv family,” Dr. Salzhauer said. “I have always been a fan of their shows and I’m so excited to open up my door and my patients to their viewers.”

Dr. Miami is produced by 2C Media.
