Dorans shield gives like 100 hp regen per minute or something like that, mitigates auto attacks with 8 armor, and gives you the most health out of all doran items.
There is no logical reason why you would start out with anything else unless you are starting a recipe early (like rushing RoA or Triforce for example).
Let me clarify what I mean here: You should only start out with dorans items unless jungling or rushing a recipe. Dorans shield is the best of the bunch
with exception of mana intensive caster/support that have a heal. For instance when I play alistar I either start with a dorans ring (hp/ap/mana regen) or a sapphire crystal+hp pots
for sheen--> triforce rush.
