I matched on my top program
I matched on my top program, had over 30 interview invites and all of that while having graduated 9 years ago. Stepping into the application process I was completely lost and didn’t know how it worked, having The Match Guy team made a substantial difference. They were diligent and genuinely interested in helping me. I feel I have many qualities that a program would want but only with professional help I was able to materialize it.
Param Kakadia
With TheMatchGuy you're going into the MATCH with the best brains in your corner!
Every advisor I worked with was extremely skilled, genuinely invested in my success, and great to learn from. I ended up receiving 17 interview invites and matched at my #1 choice, which still feels unreal. I did have a few red flags, including a YOG of 3 years, and they helped me address those very effectively in my application and interviews.
Suzanna Alhashlamon
Personal Statement editing
I matched into internal medicine at Montefiore Medical Center (Wakefield), this was my second match cycle and I knew that one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in my first cycle was not getting my personal statement reviewed by professionals. The Match Guy helped me edit and advised me on the perfect personal statement. Thank you.
Bhavya Mody
Great services
I have matched in Internal Medicine, and I am very grateful to the match guy for their excellent services. I used their PS editing service and the mock interview service, and both were top notch. I received specific suggestions to refine the content of my PS. The mock interview was also great to build confidence before the real deal. Really happy with their services, and would recommend it to all IMGs applying for the match.
Sm Koh
I'm an old international medical grad…
I’m an old international medical grad with several red flags, but I matched. Truly thankful to the match guy team. I couldn’t have achieved all these without their help. I’m so happy right now, and I’m surely willing to suggest working with The Match Guy team to my friends who are starting this journey.
Soumya
I am an IMG matched in Pediatrics and…
I am an IMG matched in Pediatrics and the Match guy was very helpful in the process. Dr James Fisher edited my personal statement and CV, I also practiced my interviews with him. His inputs, prompt replies and suggestions helped me a lot in the match. Dr Asad also held zoom calls frequently with everyone and answered all the questions that we had. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend it to my friends!
Sthefano A.
I matched PRS! Pura vida!
I matched Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Pennsylvania! Dr. Fisher is an exceptional mentor! He has consistently guided and supported me, always available and willing to help. His counsel and reassurance have been invaluable during critical moments. I am truly grateful for his mentorship
Dr IMG
Personalized Support That Made a Real Difference
As a non-US IMG, I’m happy to share that I successfully matched into Family Medicine, and I’m truly grateful for the support I received from The Match Guy throughout this journey. My physician advisor, Dr. Thakker was always available whenever I had questions or doubts. His guidance and reassurance made the entire process less stressful and helped me stay confident at every step. Dr. Kim’s editing support was exceptional.
Sayed Matar
Matched to my 1st choice in Pathology
I matched to my 1st choice in Pathology. First, after I wrote my ERAS CV and Personal Statement (PS), I sent them to Dr. Fisher for review, and we had a meeting to discuss my experiences. He then provided me with valuable suggestions and edits that helped me highlight the skills that are relevant to a pathology residency. I then had mock interviews with three different advisors: Dr. Bousamra, Dr. Marshall, and Dr. Fisher, each of whom provided me with valuable feedback.
Sojeong Mun
Matched into PM&R
I’m incredibly grateful for the support I received from The Match Guy throughout my residency application! When I first started this process, I felt honestly lost and unsure of what I needed to do to become a strong applicant. But with their guidance, I gradually developed a clear strategy and could improve my personal statement and ERAS CV. I’m so grateful that I eventually matched into PM&R, and I believe their work has played a great role in that outcome.
Julieta Alfonso
Old graduate (2007) MATCHED!
When I started this journey, I truly felt like matching was out of reach. As an older graduate with limited time to prepare, I was turned away by other agencies and felt overwhelmed and discouraged. Then I found The Match Guy—and everything changed. From the very first conversation, they told me: “We are going to help you. Let’s start right away.” That belief in me, when I needed it most, made all the difference.
Mohib Ali
I matched - thank you!
I matched! I used the ERAS and personal statement editing services, as well as the interview prep services. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. El-Harasis and Dr. Goyal for all their help—I truly appreciate their support. They both played a significant role in strengthening my application, and I would highly recommend your services to others. Thank you again!

Awesome coaching experience!
Awesome coaching experience! Dr. Heather Ngai enabled me to match into my #1 program! She was readily available and dedicated throughout the entire application process. Thank you very much!

I matched into Family Medicine into my second choice. It’s been a great journey with Match guy. Learned a lot. Dr.Anas has been a very positive and supportive mentor. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to help me achieve my goals. Dr.Fisher was also very friendly. He told me in the first meeting that my interview skills were very good and I didn’t need much help which gave me confidence. This was my first season applying and I am lucky to have matched.
Mohamed Yousry
Thank you
Thank you, Sir Ellie and Dr. Zhang, for your support and patience throughout my match cycle, which culminated in matching into my top choice.

Matchguy Platinum Package.
Without matchguy, it would have been so difficult to prepare for matching. I am an IMG living in LA. From editing and interview prep, i was able to expect what was coming. I purchased platinum package. It is pricy but it was worth it. I matched into my #1 program in California. Thank you.
Kendell O’Steen
Best investment in myself!!
This program really helped me hone in everything about my application for residency! Having someone I could contact to walk me through the process, edit my personal statement, edit my whole application, and make sure all of my accomplishments were spelled out in the limited amount of space we have for writing made this whole process amazing! I matched into my number one program and would 100% pay the same price to do it all over again.
Sibel
I matched!!
I matched! 🎉 Thank you so much for your support! I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to MatchGuy and Dr. Cindy Traboulsi. She was truly a joy to work with—always encouraging and supportive, which helped me feel more confident throughout the process. At the same time, she provided incredibly valuable, constructive feedback that strengthened my interview preparation. Her guidance made a huge difference for me.
Z K
Old IMG Matched!
Old IMG Matched! I received interview preparation help from Dr. Kang Daniel. The experience was extremely valuable. I was able to connect with him quickly despite last minute request. Dr. Kang asked challenging but highly relevant questions tailored to my application. Many of the questions he asked were very similar to those I experienced during my actual residency interviews. His experience clearly shows!
Pushan Aggarwal
Stellar Interview Prep and CV/PS Editing
I received excellent preparation for interviews, and insightful input on my CV and Personal Statement that helped elevate my application to the next level. I matched at an excellent program of my choosing, and the hard work has been worth it. Thanks to TheMatchGuy for their help in making me match into my dream residency!
Dr. Srinivas
Team of TMG gave me really good feedback
“The team of TMG gave me really good feedback which helped elevate my application! I took their advice to improve my CV, supplemental application, PS and interview prep. I matched into Family Medicine this season! :)”
Alia Gajraj
I matched into internal medicine at Florida Atlantic University!
I matched into a program in my top 3 choices only 30 minutes from my family’s home and I will get to train at a hospital that is well known in my community! I am very grateful to have decided to use the Match Guy to help me with the whole match process as It can be very convoluted and confusing. I decided to get the platinum package which gives me access to a mentor 24/7, an editor for my CV and personal statement, and interview preparation.
Essa Samuel
Platinum match package experience
I purchased the Platinum match package and I am pleased to say that I successfully matched! Dr Dodurgali was my advisor and mentor, he provided constructive feedback on the match process, helped to structure my application and also helped with interview prep. I had a fantastic experience working with him, he is extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of the match. He was also available any time I needed additional advice over whatsapp.
Kelly
They have provide me guidance through my ERAS application and interviews
They have provide me guidance through my ERAS application and interviews, I am so grateful for my mentor assigned Dr. Firas, he was an extraordinary human being and was a pleasure to practice with him and listen to his recommendations. So happy to match in my top program BCM.
AA
Highly Recommended!!!!!
I got a prematch offer!!! Thanks to the Match Guy. Buying a platinum package was one of the greatest decisions I have ever taken, especially the PS and interview preparation services, which were incredible. For Interview preparation, my mentor was Dr. Rimsha Shariff. She is one of the best mentors ever, very professional and helpful. Every penny that I spent on this service was really worth it. I would definitely recommend it to my friends.

Jim Fischer helped me write my CV and PS. He did an excellent job. I got 15 interviews with that CV. The numbers speak for themselves.
Sara Mahayni
I matched into my top choice!
I m thrilled to share that I matched into my top-choice Internal Medicine program, and I truly believe working with Dr. Besher Shami played an important role in helping me get there. I had the pleasure of working with him to prepare for my CaRMS Internal Medicine interviews, and his support was exceptional from start to finish.
Aswathi Paleri
Matched as an old YOG
Thank you Dr Asaad and your wonderful team that helped with my interview prep. Thanks to the extremely precise feedback I received, I really worked on my interview skills and I matched in my first cycle as an old YOG (graduated in 2016) into my top choice!! I still cannot wrap my head around it.Thank you Dr Zhang, Dr Farinas Jr and Dr Traboulsi for such good pointers and guidance! I have already recommended your team to most of my friends.
