## About

Based in Ultimo, Australia, and founded in 2017, Dokotela operates as a health-tech company offering a platform that connects patients with specialist doctors and mental health professionals through video chat. In September 2023, the firm raised AUD 2 million in seed funding led by investor RealVC. The firm as of February 2024, supports close to 20,000 patients on average per year through collaboration with more than 1,000 GPs, and is led by its Chairman, Matt Berriman.

Dokotela connects patients across Australia with experienced specialist doctors and clinicians through a secure online booking and video-conferencing platform, making specialist healthcare more accessible. The company’s online video conferencing platform enables patients in underserved rural and regional areas with a lifeline, who would otherwise struggle to access specialist clinical care. Additionally, the firm covers a wide range of specialties including geriatrics, pediatrics, adolescent psychiatry, ADHD, Post-traumatic stress disorder, eating disorder, and allied health.

The firm generates revenue by charging a fee for its Private Psychiatry appointment services such as the General psychiatry fee of AUD 665, General psychiatry with a medicare rebate of AUD 428, Clinical Psychologist fee of AUD 180, etc.

The company plans to utilize the September 2023 funding to hire psychiatrists in Australia.
