About Me

👋🏾 Hi, I’m Yath — a medical doctor who left clinical practice for health-tech, passionate about building the future of health and wellness using AI.

I bring a unique blend of frontline clinical experience and deep health-tech know-how to the table. With a strong foundation in Medicine (UCL Medical School) and active GMC registration, I’ve worked across digital health products, clinical risk and safety, AI development, and medical content, all while staying rooted in my mission to improve lives at scale.

Most recently, I was Clinical Product and Risk Officer at Doccla, Europe’s leading virtual care company (Series B, $50M+ funding), where I was the clinical lead for the company’s first LLM-powered AI voice agent and led clinical product oversight across product, engineering, and safety teams. I also played a pivotal role in the integration of Doccla's first wearable device into remote patient pathways, built scalable patient content systems, and acted as a Clinical Safety Officer (CSO) overseeing compliance with DCB0129 and broader regulatory frameworks, as well as conducting clinical safety and risk workshops. I worked closely with senior leadership to shape strategic product decisions, ensuring safety never took a backseat to speed. I often lent a clinical hand across the company spanning commercial, operations, logistics, and customer service teams.

Before that, I managed large-scale NHS partnerships at Doccla, delivering virtual care for over 2 million patients across multiple ICBs. My earlier health-tech roles span digital marketing, medical content and product design/research at Gogodoc and VineHealth. I also hold a Health-Tech and Innovation Fellowship from BiteLabs backed by Google, AWS, and the RCGP. Last, but certainly not least, I’ve been actively practicing clinical medicine for nearly four years, initially full-time, and now on an ad-hoc basis through occasional locum shifts.

🔍 I’m especially energised by roles that sit at the intersection of clinical, patient safety, healthcare technology, and digital innovation; where I can use my medical lens to help shape safe, user-friendly, and high-impact health and wellness products.

My Philosophy

💚 I believe healthcare shouldn’t start with illness; it should start with wellness.

🏔️ I’m driven by the idea that great medical content, intelligent AI technology, and human-centred design can empower people to live better, healthier lives. From the hospital ward to the algorithmic edge, I’m here to build bridges that make healthcare more proactive, personalised, and preventative.

🧠 My approach is mission-driven, collaborative, and grounded in clarity and integrity. Whether I’m crafting patient-facing copy, evaluating medical devices, or running a safety workshop, I bring sharp clinical insight and a calm, systems-thinking mindset to everything I do.

Outside of Work

🎯 I’m a bit of a content nerd. In my spare time, I create content around careers, health, and lifestyle design, helping others design lives that are rich in time, energy, and purpose. My newsletter, Life Unlocked, has amassed 100,000+ reads with a weekly open rate of over 40%, and my social content has grown to over 9,000+ followers across platforms.

🧭 I’ve also become a leading voice for burnt-out NHS doctors thinking about career pivots and finding their voice in the health-tech world. I love helping burnt-out clinicians find new, meaningful paths whether that's through quick chats, in-depth strategy sessions, CV reviews, Interview practice, or coaching once their in their first role to make sure they thrive!

🐾 When I’m not working or writing, you’ll find me on long walks (often with a podcast), playing tennis, failing at golf, at the gym, learning something obscure, or spending time with my wife and our cavapoo, Raffie. More recently, you may find me deep in conversation with ChatGPT voice or building yet another GPT to automate more and more of my personal life.

Looking Ahead

🚀 I’m currently exploring new opportunities starting April 2025 onwards in the health-tech and wellness space, ideally in consumer health. I’m open to hybrid roles in London or remote-first teams, with a strong preference for full-time work that lets me lead or shape the future of exciting health-tech and/or wellness products.
