The Future Medic Seeks to Boost Prospects of Aspiring Medical Students

Rochdale, UK - 11/05/23 The Future Medic, one of Rochdale’s pre-eminent medical school tutoring companies, has helped more than 1,000 students enter medical school and fulfill their dreams.

With over 14 years of experience dealing with medical students, the company was founded by University of Manchester graduate Dr. Valeed Ghafoor - MBChB, MRCGP, DRCOG, PGDip (CPME). Valeed is a GP Partner with a special interest in medical training and medical education, and this has allowed him to use his position and expertise to help the next generation of medics.

According to data from The Times, in 2022 more than 85% of UK students who applied to study medicine were rejected outright! This leaves a large portion of prospective medical students who are unsure of what to do next, which is where The Future Medic comes in.

With a focus on improving aspiring medical students’ skills in interviewing and crafting a killer personal statement, the company has seen a lot of growth in the past year or so. The need for medical experts has never been greater, and this is the driving force behind The Future Medic.

“It’s not only about training doctors, but it’s about General Practice- it is massively struggling for recruitment at the moment,” said Dr. Ghafoor. “We need more people to get into medical school, because there is a real-time shortage of doctors, and you need enough doctors to support a growing population.”

Having helped thousands of medical students improve their futures, and enter the medical schools of their choice, the company is keen to help thousands more.

What separates the company from rivals is that Dr. Ghafoor based the services he provides on his personal experiences with education, and the initial struggles of trying to get into medical school. Speaking in an interview with FE News, the educator spoke about how he became inspired to start the business based on personal experience.

“I found the process of applying to medical school daunting,” revealed Dr. Ghafoor. “As someone who attended a struggling state school, which eventually went into special measures and closed down, I didn’t have much guidance or support.”

Leaning heavily on this experience, Valeed has developed a company that excels in giving prospective students just that guidance and support he missed out on. And even those students who already have amazing grades can benefit from the services The Future Medic provides.

“At The Future Medic, we have had huge successes. We had one student who had amazing grades but wanted a higher UCAT score,” Dr. Ghafoor revealed in the same interview. “After we tutored him, he scored an average of over 750 on his UCAT test. That is literally going to be the difference between him getting interviews and not getting them.”

For any aspiring medical student serious about getting into their dream medical school, The Future Medic is an invaluable resource for growth, improvement, and opportunity.
