The following is a list of characters who first appeared in the BBC soap opera Doctors in 2007, by order of first appearance.
Vera Corrigan (née Wallis) portrayed by Doña Croll, first appeared on 10 May 2007 and departed on 14 June 2007. Croll reprised her role in 2010, making one appearance in January, then again in August.
Vera was married on 11 May 1977 to Tony Corrigan. They had a daughter, Michelle Corrigan who became and nurse at the Mill Health Centre in 2006. Tony died on their 30th wedding anniversary in 2007. Vera left the soap a few days after Tony's death. In her surprise return in January 2010, it became known that she had recently been suffering from pains. Michelle thought it was cancer but did not want to believe it, after her grandmother (Vera's mother) died of cancer. Michelle asked fellow doctors Heston and then Lily but they both said it could be cancer. Vera was set to have results from St. Phil's hospital that day and Michelle went with her. Michelle and Vera were very nervous but in the end it was discovered it was not cancer but just general pains.
