You Have A Choice

Our ultimate goal is to be considered by DOs who want to earn their MD for less money, less time, and less nonsense.
Everyone in the medical community is familiar with what the traditional methods of earning an MD look like and in our opinion, they’re a little ridiculous.
Let’s start with the elephant in the room called money. Our students can typically earn their MD for 80% less than traditional methods. Since when is saving 80% insignificant?
Never, that’s when.
College and graduate school are one thing but paying for an MD is the equivalent of buying a nice home. If you’ve looked into it you already know we’re not kidding. If you’ve seriously looked into it you know we’re talking about a really nice home, not a single wide on a quarter acre in the middle of nowhere.
The financing options offered by traditional universities and their proxy banks are no walk in the park either. Most financed degrees accompany debt that can’t be discharged even in bankruptcy. So instead of losing your house, you are staring down the barrel of a gun that’s happy to take the one thing you have. Everything.
What about the lost time? When you do the real calculation that factors in what your time is worth things get interesting. Not only are you staring at a huge bill that reaches far beyond tuition. You’re going toe to toe with an alien that zaps things like family, friendships, and free time like those blue light thingamajigs.
We exist to address the practical problems associated with earning your MD because you’re taking a risk doing it. What if you don’t complete it? What if something happens? What if you miss a payment? What if you can’t pass exams?
Nobody is going to remove these risks altogether but we can minimize their impact by introducing real savings that touch all areas of your education. The SimplyMD program not only saves money but it saves you time, headaches, and all the nonsense you can imagine.
Our partner universities are flexible. If you stumble or pause because life happens we can deal with it. This is partly because of our unique pairing curriculum with US-based schools. This helps us head off problems before they happen so you can get back on track quickly without having to wait a year.
As invaluable as that is we’re not selling anything. That’s right, you’ll never get a bill from us. Period, end of story.
Our relationships with our partner universities take care of our expenses so everyone wins. Pick up any decent book on business and read about the impact of everyone winning in a transaction. When everyone’s interests are aligned everyone wins. You want to earn your MD and our partner network has a limited amount of spots available for overseas students but neither have any way to meet one another.
Until now.
First, we’ll start with a consultation to see if we’re a good fit. This will be a good time to answer any questions or concerns you might have. Next, you’ll fill out an onboarding profile and we get to work pairing you with a university that meets your budget, schedule, and other goals.
Our hands-on approach to getting you pointed in the right direction helps everyone. You earn the degree you want for a fair price and we get a happy customer. Would you be surprised to hear that an overwhelming majority of our students recommend us to their peers?
When you have an opportunity to do something great you should at least consider it. Is earning your MD great? We think it pretty great and its never been more attainable or more affordable.
Almost 90% of DOs surveyed said they want to earn their MD. We think that numbers actually low because why wouldn’t you? There’s no need to lay out the downright disrespect DOs experience on a daily basis and for what?
See the difference replacing those two little letters with MD makes the next time you ask for more money, try to get on staff or make a reservation for dinner.
Isn’t it time for a change? We think it is.
