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:
“An Illinois woman has invented a portable house which can be carried about in a cart or expressed to the seashore. It has also folding furniture and a complete camping outfit.”
—Lydia Hoyt Farmer (1842–1903)
“It seems to me that your doctor [Tronchin] is more of a philosopher than a physician. As for me, I much prefer a doctor who is an optimist and who gives me remedies that will improve my health. Philosophical consolations are, after all, useless against real ailments. I know only two kinds of sickness—physical and moral: all the others are purely in the imagination.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
