About

Dr Neera Dholakia joined Boots Online Doctor as a GP in June 2021.

She provides expert safeguarding advice and training to the team. Additionally, Dr Neera is a clinical governance trustee for mental health and addiction charity We Are With You. Dr Neera appreciates working in online medicine as it offers the opportunity to reach people in areas, both geographically and clinically, who might otherwise struggle to access the care they need. She’s found it very rewarding helping to shape our Mental Health services as clinical lead, designing something that is personalised whilst remaining safe, quick and efficient to access.
