Swimming and the ocean being a favorite weekend activity, encouraged by her Dad Muhammed who swam every day and was a successful businessman who served his clients with smiles, laughs and a lot of heart. Dr Docrat’s mum, a pharmacist, always served as a great inspiration for helping and healing others. She matriculated from Westville Girls High School where she was a Prefect and toastmaster and was always the youngest in her class.

Dr Docrat then began private practice in 2010 in Pietermaritzburg and in 2017 moved to a practice in Hilton where she still practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays. She opened Prestige Dentistry Hillcrest in order to serve a growing community with the skills she has acquired over her 13-year career.
