BUNKER HILL – Back for its 17th Season, Doctors on Call will begin airing on Smoky Hills PBS on Tuesday, Jan. 4 at 7 p.m.
“If you have a question, call in,” said Les Kinderknecht, Senior Producer/Director of Smoky Hills PBS. “Doctors on Call has been a favorite for our viewers because it’s LIVE and they have a chance to call in with their own questions. We love it, too, because we get to hear from our viewers from all over Central and Western Kansas and it’s a great way for us to promote all the skilled medical professionals that we have across our great state of Kansas.”
Doctors on Call is a LIVE viewer call-in show hosted by Jenna Miller. It is also produced by Smoky Hills PBS and takes place in Studio A in Bunker Hill, KS. Smoky Hills PBS brings in medical professionals from throughout the state to provide medical information on their field of expertise. Each week Doctors on Call highlights a new topic and new doctor.
Viewers also have the opportunity to call in with questions LIVE during the show. The doctors selected each week have expertise in the topic chosen for that program. A schedule of programs and past episodes are available at www.SmokyHillsPBS.org.
