Docterz, a Mumbai-based healthcare technology company founded by practising paediatrician Dr Atish Laddad, has raised Rs 5 crore from approximately 35 investors. Nearly 60% of the funding—close to Rs 3 crore—has come from around 20 doctors who use the Docterz platform.
The investor group also includes Vineeta Singh, Co-founder and CEO of SUGAR Cosmetics, and Avnish Anand Co-founder and former CEO of CaratLane.
The participation of doctor-users marks a milestone in Docterz’s journey to build a trusted technology platform for medical practitioners—one that brings together modern tools for running a clinic with a focus on patient data security, clinical independence and the doctor–patient relationship.
The funding will support Docterz’s organic growth and inorganic expansion opportunities, enabling the company to reach more doctors and healthcare organisations across India. It will also be used to bring the latest practical technology to the medical community, including AI-enabled tools designed to help doctors with everyday clinical and practice-management tasks.
The focus is on making technology useful in daily practice—from documentation and administrative workflows to understanding practice data and supporting patient follow-up. Docterz also plans to reach more independent practitioners and smaller clinics, helping them adopt technology suited to the way they work.
