About Us

Let's get a little more comfortable.

Chances are, if you're an IMG, your clinical knowledge is already rock solid. To thrive in the NHS, all you need are the bells and whistles of clinical communication, which will allow you to master interactions with patients and colleagues alike. Enter PlabMed: a one-of-a-kind, practise based initiative that is designed to help international medical graduates ace the PLAB 2 exam. We are two graduates from Imperial College School of Medicine who noticed a huge need for PLAB 2 courses run by UK-trained doctors. As doctors working in the NHS who have achieved prizes and distinctions in our medical exams, we have used our knowledge and experience to put together our flagship course, The PLAB 2 Masterclass. We hope you find it useful - and we hope to see you on our wards soon.
Let's smash the PLAB 2
