The Children's Doctor is an American daytime medical and parental advice program that ran on ABC for 3 years, from April 1967 to August 1969.
[1] It was produced at the studios of KGW-TV in Portland (an NBC affiliate; KATU was/is the market's ABC affiliate during this period) where the program was broadcast for a time locally before ABC picked it up for national broadcast.
The program was hosted by Dr. Lendon Smith M.D., who gave advice everyday on topics ranging from how to discipline children to proper nutrition and would feature young children and their parents in his shows.
Smith noted that at times that most of the children that appeared on the show would cause mischief both on and off-camera.
[2] When it debuted, it aired at 10:55 am, but in the winter of 1968 it was moved to 2:55 pm where it would be paired with another ABC program, The Baby Game.
