Dr. Dholaria and Hal Schlenger on Importance of Primary Care and Health Benefits

The healthcare system is broken, so attracting and retaining employees by offering the most requested employee benefit, health insurance, is challenging. Wellstar continues to be part of the solution, with an unsung hero being primary care. A Wellstar physician and a benefits broker present a shared message how to get and pay for a better, smarter solution, lowering costs for employers and employees.


Dr. Dholaria received his undergraduate degree in biochemistry from Temple University in Philadelphia. He went to medical school at Spartan Health Sciences University in St. Lucia. Dr. Dholaria completed his Family Medicine residency in Savannah and a Geriatric fellowship in Macon. He practiced in Savannah for 9 years before joining WellStar over a year ago. Dr. Dholaria is board certified in Family Medicine. He is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians, Georgia Academy of Family Physicians and American Geriatrics Society. He is excited and grateful for the opportunity to work at WellStar Family Medicine Crabapple. He is married and has a son, enjoys spending time with family and friends, travelling, hiking and going to sporting events.


Hal Schlenger believes that small/mid-sized businesses are critical to our country’s strong economy because they are innovative and efficient. Hal provides options for attracting and retaining great employees by offering health insurance and related benefits. Having personally benefited both physically and financially, from the better, smarter primary care that Dr. Dholaria or others provide, Hal explains how both employers and employees can spend less on healthcare while having the protection when hospitalization is needed. A graduate of Syracuse University, Hal also teaches sailing, sponsors Walk with a Doc Atlanta, leads an annual interfaith program, and with his wife Alison, have fostered 95 dogs for Golden Retriever Rescue of Atlanta.
