What Dottori.it does

Dottori.it is an Italian digital healthcare booking platform that enables patients to find and book medical appointments online across a wide range of specialties, including dermatology, gynecology, cardiology, orthopedics, pediatrics, dentistry, physiotherapy, and general practice. The platform indexes providers by specialty and city (e.g., Milan) and is accessible via web and native mobile apps on iOS and Android. In 2021 the company acquired a majority stake in Appocrate, adding the Prenoting platform — a digital booking and management tool aimed at healthcare facilities — thereby extending the offering beyond consumer-side appointment discovery into B2B clinic digitalization.

The legal entity operating the Italian business is Doctolib Srl, a private limited company headquartered in Milan (Via Vittor Pisani 19, 20124) with €3,010,000 in share capital, subject to direction and coordination of the French parent Doctolib SAS. The Italian operation is one of three national footprints of the Doctolib group, alongside France (doctolib.fr) and Germany (doctolib.de). The company is B Corporation certified, maintains a dedicated careers page, and operates under the EU Regulation 1150/2019 platform-complaints framework. The two named leaders are founder Ihsan Younes and COO Marco Amodeo.

The business model combines a consumer-facing appointment marketplace with a B2B provider-side software offering (Prenoting). Public pricing is not disclosed. The company is privately held, has 101-250 employees, and was founded in 2013. Earlier-stage funding rounds in 2014 and 2018 (with #adm Ventures as a named investor in 2018) preceded what is now a parent-subsidiary relationship with Doctolib SAS.
