Born on January 23, 1969, in Kwall, Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State, Dr Doro has over two decades of experience spanning clinical practice, pharmaceutical management, strategic leadership, and community development in both the United Kingdom and Nigeria.
He holds degrees in pharmacy and law, an MBA specialising in IT-driven business strategy, and a master’s degree in advanced clinical practice. Dr Doro is also an Independent Prescriber and Advanced Clinical Practitioner with extensive experience working within the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) across urgent care, walk-in centres, general practice, and hospital settings.
Beyond his medical career, Dr Doro is actively involved in youth mentorship and community development, leading several social impact initiatives within Nigeria and among the diaspora.
