Physician-Led Guidance. Personalized Strategy.

Resiyay was founded by Dr. Tabassum Fayyaz, an Internal Medicine physician with a passion for mentorship, professional development, and helping future physicians navigate the Match process with confidence.

Having worked closely with applicants from diverse backgrounds and career paths, Dr. Fayyaz recognized that successful Match preparation requires more than strong credentials alone. Applicants benefit most when mentorship is personalized, strategic, and tailored to their individual experiences, goals, and strengths.

Under her leadership, Resiyay was built to provide physician-led guidance that emphasizes preparation, communication, professionalism, and authentic self-presentation throughout every stage of the application journey.

Today, Resiyay supports a growing community of applicants through mentorship programs, mock interviews, educational resources, physician panels, and collaborative learning opportunities designed to help future physicians approach the Match process with clarity and confidence.

Our Mission

Helping future physicians match with clarity, confidence and integrity
