Service Tiers

Our philosophy is simple: every client is unique and faces unique challenges on their way to achieving their dreams of practicing medicine.

That's why we take a personalized, "white-glove" approach. Dr. Samir Desai and Dr. Ryan Downey construct a powerful, personalized set of recommendations for each client.

To help us deeply understand your situation, you first complete a comprehensive questionnaire, called the Diagnostic Intake Assessment (DIA). This extensive, proprietary tool delves into the nooks and crannies of each client's level of knowledge, academic attributes, attitudes, behavioral patterns, and background, allowing us to deliver actionable insights based on your unique profile.

Dr. Downey and Dr. Desai review your personal responses on the DIA in the context of evidence-based best practices. MD2B Diagnostic's "secret sauce" involves matching your personal strengths with research-backed recommendations to accelerate and deepen your ability to learn what you need to learn. In addition, the consultation provides you with the knowledge you need to manage any obstacles standing in the way of peak performance.

During a roughly 2-hour-long virtual consultation, Dr. Desai and Dr. Downey offer detailed and specific recommendations on how to tighten every aspect of your Step 2 CK preparation. This DIA Consultation will give you everything you need to develop confidence and a well-thought-out, personalized plan for Step 2 CK success.

In a second session, Dr. Desai and Dr. Downey walk through test-taking strategies with you to evaluate your approach to Step 2-style vignettes. As we show you how to best approach Step 2 CK questions, you receive specialized advice drawn from Dr. Downey's 15+ years of experience developing high-stakes assessments. In addition, from Dr. Desai you acquire key insights and diagnostic strategies that will help you sharpen your clinical reasoning skills.

Because the Step 2 is just one part of your broader journey to a successful U.S. medical residency, we discuss your personalized strategies for a successful residency application process. Dr. Desai and Dr. Downey will share concrete next steps based on your desired professional goals (specialty and/or program of your choice).

Dr. Downey and Dr. Desai remain personally invested in the success of every client and are available for follow-up throughout your journey.
