Sony Pictures Television Latin America presents adaptation of Doc
SPT Latin America has successfully adapted the acclaimed Italian medical drama format Doc – Nelle tue mani for the Mexican market, further expanding the global footprint of the intellectual property. The highly anticipated series, which debuted on Netflix through a two-part release strategy in March 2026, represents a significant addition to SPT’s slate of premium scripted regional productions. This new iteration follows the massive success of the original European broadcast and SPT Studios’ own recent American adaptation for Fox, demonstrating the cross-cultural resonance of the format’s core premise.
The Mexican production centers on Dr. Andrés Ferrara, a brilliant head of internal medicine whose life is abruptly upended following an assassination attempt. The resulting trauma leaves him with severe amnesia, entirely erasing the last twelve years of his memory. Thrust back into a hospital environment that has drastically evolved and faced with personal and romantic relationships he no longer recognizes, the protagonist must rebuild his professional identity from scratch. He is forced to navigate the profound gap between the assertive, seasoned professional he once was and the disoriented man he has become, all while continuing to treat patients.
The premium drama boasts a heavyweight local cast led by Juan Pablo Medina in the titular role of Dr. Ferrara. He is joined by Gabriela de la Garza, who plays Dr. Ximena Franco, a key member of the medical team, and Peruvian actress Stephanie Cayo, who portrays a fellow head of internal medicine and the protagonist’s right hand. The ensemble is further strengthened by notable regional talents including Iván Sánchez and Giuseppe Gamba as fellow physicians. By seamlessly combining high-stakes medical procedural elements with intense character-driven storytelling, SPT Latin America’s adaptation of Doc underscores the studio’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-end, localized scripted content tailored for major global streaming platforms.
