Disney+ Shares Official Trailer for DOOGIE KAMEALOHA, M.D.

If you enjoyed Doogie Howser M.D. then you may be interested in checking out Doogie Kamealoha M.D. It follows the familiar plot of Doogie Howser but this time we focus on Lahela “Doogie” Kamealoha and is filmed on location in O’ahu.

Doogie Kamealoha, M.D. – a coming-of-age dramedy inspired by the hit medical series “Doogie Howser, M.D.” – follows Lahela “Doogie” Kamealoha, a 16-year-old prodigy juggling a budding medical career and life as a teenager. With the support of her caring and comical ‘ohana (family) and friends, Lahela is determined to make the most of her teenage years and forge her own path.
