When Vishal Doshi was a child, he would help his father and grandfather at their family-owned pharmacy. While stacking shelves, the then 8-year-old realised something about the patients who came through the shop. “The lack of affordability of the desired medication had an enormous impact on their lives. The status quo troubled me because the most precious things to us – our health, well-being and life – are not affordable to most people,” Doshi shares.
“These experiences taught me empathy and played an instrumental role in crafting my vision for carrying forward my family’s legacy of serving patients globally.”
Doshi followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather and studied pharmacy in India. After graduating in 2006, he headed to Kingston University, UK, to study and train to become a medicinal chemist. While he was there, he also conducted research on breast cancer.
