In 1989, Ron's first television series, The House Doctor, built significantly upon the concept of reality-based home improvement television. The series would eventually feature over 600 televised "house calls." Ron created, co-produced and hosted this series for American Broadcasting Company affiliate KGO-TV in San Francisco. The program was distributed by Home and Garden Television (HGTV) across North America, until 2001.

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or doctor:
“Time, which shows so vacant, indivisible, and divine in its coming, is slit and peddled into trifles and tatters. A door is to be painted, a lock to be repaired. I want wood, or oil, or meal, or salt; the house smokes, or I have a headache; then the tax; and an affair to be transacted with a man without heart or brains; and the stinging recollection of an injurious or very awkward word,—these eat up the hours.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A doctor is fascinated by death, and pain. And how much pain a man can endure.”
—David Boehm, and Louis Friedlander. Dr. Richard Vollin (Bela Lugosi)
