If you have Snapchat than you probably know that one of the most talked about accounts just happens to belong to Dr. Miami. For some it may be a little too much, as he uses the social media app to snap some of his surgical procedures throughout the day.
Now the plastic surgeon’s work will soon make its way to our television screens on WE TV.
According to Deadline, the network has ordered six hour-long episodes of “Dr. Miami”. An unscripted series that follows Dr. Michael Salzhauer (Dr. Miami) who has attracted many followers on social media, but mostly on Snapchat, which he uses for his “snap” in progress surgical procedures.
Salzhauer said, “I am thrilled to be a member of the We TV family. 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.”
WE TV president Marc Juris said, “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.”
Dr. Miami is set to premier next year.
