Dr Julian

Dr Julian is an innovative mental healthcare platform that aims to increase accessibility of mental healthcare. We connect patients almost immediately to mental healthcare professionals by secure video/audio/text using a calendar appointment booking system. We match a patient to the correct therapist for them using filters via language/ issue and therapy type and offer every organisation we work with their own unique customised white-labelled version of our platform.

We are working with a number of NHS trusts including Lancashire, Thurrock and Oxleas IAPT services and from our trials currently have an over 70% recovery rate and very high user satisfaction rate. We also work with corporate companies directly and through referrals from insurance and other companies providing mental health support to employees. We have integrated with the PRISM system to allow automatic upload of this data into NHS IAPT systems.  We are now scaling this offering and do get in touch if interested email [email protected]

What is your innovation?

Dr Julian is an innovative mental healthcare platform that aims to increase accessibility of mental healthcare. We connect patients to mental healthcare professionals by secure video/audio/text using a calendar appointment booking system.

We empower patients allowing them to see who they want to see when they want to see them where they want to see them and how they want to see them, they can choose who they want to see from a list of available therapists and can filter via issue (depression/anxiety etc)/ language/ therapy type/ date/time, therefore finding the therapist that meets their needs. They then book with the therapist on the system and then have the appointment on the system. They therefore can have the appointment from wherever they want so long as they have Internet access.

Notes are then stored securely on that patients profile on the system.

Patients take assessments on the system in line with NHS data requirements, which are stored on the patient’s profile.

Patients have access to their assessment results through their dashboard at any time and they can use the platform for taking and viewing assessments i.e. GAD7 and PHQ9 both during and post NHS treatment including the ability to book further appointments privately.

The platform can store any communication between the patient and therapist in regard to advice and suggestions that they may make in regard to treatment and which are available to the patient at all times.

We can create unique customised sub portal domains we call ‘tenancies’. This can be branded to the NHS trust and have a customised registration form and patient’s notes template. This allows customisation to help NHS staff. We are currently being used in IAPT services with an 80% recovery rate as compared to the NHS under 50%, we are also being used by a number of corporate organisations providing mental health for their employees and could be used by the NHS to help their staff.
