Production
The script was written by Štefan Titka, Tereza Dusová, Tomáš Končinsky and Ondřej Provazník and directed by Petr Zahrádka. Doktor Martin was prepared by Kateřina Ondřejková's Creative and Production Group in co-production with Bionaut and in cooperation with Slovak RTVS and producer Zuzana Mistríková from RubRes.
Filming took place from spring 2014, with the fictional Beskydy village of Protějov represented by the municipality of Velké Karlovice.
The MediaMania server compared the basic plot of the series to Doktoři z Počátků on TV Nova, where the main character Ota Kovář – played by Martin Stránský – also goes to the countryside as a general practitioner. Mediář and DigiZone also compared the theme of a doctor in the mountainous countryside to the German television series Der Bergdoktor.
