Multiple licensing examinations passed across two healthcare systems — the USMLE pathway and the Canadian MCCQE framework. Award-winning presenter with a 1st Place Poster Award and an active abstract and publication record.
Meet the Founder
Dr. Rumman Ahmed didn't just pass the exams that stand between aspiring physicians and their careers — he conquered the most demanding licensing pathway in medicine and then turned around to make it survivable for everyone behind him. As an international medical graduate, he earned the USMLE Steps 1, 2 CK, and 3, the MCCQE1 (LMCC), and full ECFMG certification. He has walked every step of the road his students are on now, which means he doesn't teach from a textbook — he teaches from experience.
His research career proves he operates at the highest academic level. At the University of Illinois, Dr. Ahmed built hands-on clinical research skills that produced a publishing record spanning peer-reviewed abstracts, case reports, and original publications across palliative care, hematology, and oncology — some of the most nuanced, high-stakes fields in medicine. This is a coach who doesn't just know the right answer; he knows why it's right, and how the literature behind it actually works.
He's been recognized for it, too. Dr. Ahmed has presented at national and international conferences and earned a 1st Place Poster Presentation Award — a distinction that reflects not only the depth of his research but a rare gift: the ability to take something complex and make it land with absolute clarity. He is a presenter at the CAP-ACP 2025 annual meeting, cementing his standing in the pathology and clinical laboratory community.
But the credential that matters most to his students isn't on any certificate. For over four years, Dr. Ahmed has tutored and coached aspiring physicians through the exact examinations that once stood in his own way. He knows precisely where students stumble, why they freeze, and what separates the candidates who match from the ones who don't. That hard-won insight is the engine behind CrushMedical — a platform built to close the gap between what you know and how you perform when it counts.
Crush Medical exists because Dr. Ahmed lived the journey — the licensing exams, the research, the sleepless nights, the cost of getting it wrong. Every resource, every lesson, every strategy on this platform is built from that experience. Not recycled theory. Not generic question banks. Physician insight from someone who beat the same exams you're facing — and is in your corner to make sure you do too.

Client Reviews
"The MCCQE1 is tricky because it tests Canadian clinical contexts specifically, and that's not something most generic resources prepare you for. Crush Medical's coaching was tailored to exactly what the MCC tests — clinical decision-making, preventive care, and the Canadian healthcare framework. I passed on my first attempt with a score well above the national average. Life-changing."
Nadia A. — MCCQE1: First Attempt Pass,
International Medical Graduate, Ontario"I was overwhelmed trying to figure out where to even start with Step 2. Crush Medical completely changed that. The structured resource guide told me exactly what to use and in what order, and the tutoring sessions filled in the gaps I didn't even know I had. I scored a 261 on my first attempt and I genuinely don't think that would have happened without this program. Worth every penny."
Priya S. — Step 2 CK: 261
Windsor University School of Medicine
Matched Family Medicine"Step 2 CK felt like a completely different beast and I was nervous going in. The clinical reasoning coaching sessions were exactly what I needed — we'd go through cases together and I learned how to actually think through questions instead of just memorizing. First attempt, 256. I keep recommending Crush Medical to everyone in my cohort."
