Doctor Doctor (also known as The Heart Guy) is an Australian television drama programme that premiered on the Nine Network on 14 September 2016. It follows the story of Hugh Knight, a rising heart surgeon who is gifted, charming and infallible. He is a hedonist who, due to his sheer talent, believes he can live outside the rules. His "work hard, play harder" philosophy is about to come back and bite him.
The series is produced by Essential Media and Entertainment and its first season created 800 jobs and production expenditure of $11.6 million in Sydney and Mudgee, as well as $300,000 in grants from Screen NSW.
On 28 September 2016, Nine renewed the program for a second season after just two episodes having been aired. In May 2017, Angus McLaren and Brittany Scott Clark were announced to be joining the program for its second season. Season 2 began airing on 16 August 2017.
On 11 October 2017, the series was renewed for a third season at Nine’s upfronts.
The series, which is retitled as The Heart Guy, airs on PayTV broadcaster, Sky Deutschland for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The program is also available in the USA with the title The Heart Guy from the streaming network Acorn TV and in the UK on Drama.
