Dr Lavan Varathan

Dr Lavan Varathan is a compassionate and diligent General Practitioner and the Chief Executive Officer and Medical Director of Gogodoc. He received his medical degree from King's College London and further training including a Post Graduate Medical Certificate of Education from University College London (UCL).

He has gained extensive training in various medical and surgical specialties. Dr Lavan completed his GP training at the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, where he honed his skills in patient care and treatment.

Dr Lavan has a keen interest in medical education and has completed a postgraduate teaching certification from University College London. He is committed to mentoring future generations of GPs and sharing his knowledge and expertise.

He also works at a very well-established private GP practice, The Brook Surgery. He believes in continuity of care and getting to know his patients and their families. He is very aware that this can often be lost in current medical practice and is adamant that this should remain central to any organisation that he works with.

Dr Lavan considers lifestyle as an important part of overall health and places strong emphasis on maintaining both physical and mental wellbeing.

Dr Lavan is known for his comforting manner and holistic approach to healthcare. In a busy society, he believes that health must be viewed as a whole, and he strives to provide high-quality care tailored to the individual needs of his patients.

As Medical Director and Consultant at ProEmTech, Dr Lavan Varathan works closely with the organisation's technology and development teams, who specialise in advanced healthcare software, AI-driven clinical systems, and modern medical technology solutions. ProEmTech's multidisciplinary teams include experienced engineers, healthcare technology specialists, and software architects working on next-generation digital healthcare platforms.

In this role, Dr Lavan contributes valuable clinical insight to ensure that these technologies reflect the real-world needs of doctors, clinics, and patients. By sharing frontline medical perspectives and practical clinical feedback, he helps guide the development of systems that support safe medical practice, effective clinical workflows, and improved patient care.

Dr Lavan collaborates with the development teams during the design and refinement of healthcare platforms such as ProMed UK, helping ensure that the technology aligns with modern clinical requirements and evolving healthcare standards.

While the engineering, AI development, and technical architecture are designed and implemented by ProEmTech's specialised technology teams, Dr Lavan provides clinical guidance and medical perspective to help bridge the gap between healthcare practice and technological innovation.

Through this collaboration between clinicians and technology specialists, the aim is to support the development of responsible, patient-focused healthcare solutions that improve clinical efficiency and enhance the patient experience.
