About Dr Admissions | UK Medical & Dental School Admissions Specialists

About Us

Dr Admissions was founded by a senior NHS doctor with years of experience in mentoring aspiring medical and dental students. 

Built on in-depth knowledge gained from being an NHS doctor for several decades and being actively involved in the admissions process, Dr Admissions brings you clear and expert senior guidance throughout your application.

As the platform is led by a single experienced NHS Doctor and Medical Educator, every resource and insight is crafted with consistency and a deep commitment to helping students succeed. Every student on the all-in-one package has one teacher throughout (apart from the UCAT programme), Dr Afrosa Ahmed – Senior Medical Admissions Expert.  

At Dr Admissions, our mission is simple: to make medical and dental school applications more accessible and, more importantly, provide the correct mindset that it is achievable. 

Your journey to medicine or dentistry starts here.
