TLC Announces Companion Project to DR. PIMPLE POPPER

On the heels of the success of TLC's Dr. Pimple Popper, the network is dipping its toe into a brand-new project, DR. FOOT FIXER, to premiere early 2019. Dr. Yolanda Ragland is a renowned podiatrist and foot surgeon who gives a whole new meaning to "fancy footwork." Patients with crippling, humiliating and sometimes ooey-gooey conditions desperate to lead a normal life turn to Dr. Ragland and her practice with the sole purpose of being able to feel fabulous, from head to toe, once again.

"TLC shares powerful medical transformation stories like no one else, and after seeing the overwhelmingly positive response to DR. PIMPLE POPPER we heard our audience's desire for more loud and clear," says Howard Lee, President and GM of TLC. "Viewers will fall head over heels with Dr. Ragland and be captivated by her most challenging, can't-look-away cases."

With 15 years of medical experience, she maintains offices on Park Avenue in New York City and in the Washington, D.C. metro area.
