The oral boards aren’t just another test. They’re the milestone that validates everything, the
late nights, the sacrifice, the thousands of hours in the OR. SimMed is the AI-powered
preparation platform built by a plastic surgeon who’s been exactly where you are.
The Tools Haven’t Kept Up With How You Actually Live
You’re balancing call schedules, early practice obligations, and a life outside the hospital. Yet the standard options for oral board prep treat you like you have unlimited time and money.
The oral boards are different. There's no multiple choice safety net. No process of elimination. Just you, an examiner, and cases you've never seen before.
Three Pain Points:
University Prep Courses — $3,000+ and a full week away from your patients, your practice, and your family. Designed around the institution’s schedule, not yours.
Study Groups — Only work when everyone’s available at the same time. In residency, that’s almost never.
Self-Study — Free, but silent. No feedback, no calibration, no way to know if you’re actually ready until you’re sitting across from an examiner.
Built by Someone Who’s Been There
Dr. Jacob M. Marks, MD
Trained in integrated plastic surgery at the University of Wisconsin and completed an aesthetic surgery fellowship at Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, earning multiple awards for excellence in education, research, and clinical performance.
Preparing for the ABPS exam while managing early practice and real life, he saw exactly what was missing: a preparation experience that was accessible, realistic, and adaptive, one that actually reflected the demands of exam day, not just the content of a textbook.
He built SimMed because no tool like it existed. And because where you trained shouldn’t determine whether you’re ready.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is SimMed built for?
Not at all. SimMed was specifically designed to level the playing field. Whether you trained at a major academic center or a community program, the oral boards hold everyone to the same standard. SimMed gives every candidate access to the same quality of preparation.
How is SimMed different from ChatGPT or other AI tools?
SimMed is purpose-built for plastic surgery oral boards by a board-certified plastic surgeon who sat for the ABPS exam himself. The AI is trained specifically on board-relevant cases, ABPS examiner questioning patterns, and the decision-making framework the exam actually tests. Generic AI tools don’t know what an oral board examiner is looking for. SimMed does.
Can I really prepare for oral boards with AI?
Yes. SimMed simulates the interactive, case-based format of the oral exam. You’ll practice articulating your clinical reasoning out loud and responding to follow-up questions, exactly what the exam requires.
How much time should I spend preparing?
Most successful candidates practice 30–60 minutes per day in the 2–3 months leading up to their exam. SimMed makes this achievable because you can practice anywhere.
What if I’ve failed the oral boards before?
SimMed is ideal for retakers. The platform identifies your specific weak areas and helps you focus your preparation where it matters most.
How does the money-back guarantee work?
If you complete the program and do not pass your oral boards, simply submit your exam results and we’ll issue a full refund within 30 days.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. SimMed uses enterprise-grade security. Your practice sessions and performance data are private and never shared.
