"I set up CASC Master as during my own revision I wished there was a good value personalised course, which cares about the needs of the individual.
I also felt some up to date, exam specific, high quality videos would be really helpful hence I have created a video resource bank for others to benefit from.
At CASC Master our ethos is to provide a high quality, individual, personalised service to meet your specific needs. Whether it's your first or last attempt at sitting the CASC we look forward to supporting you and giving you the power to succeed!"

Being an international medical graduate preparation for CASC was a challenge that I was able to overcome confidently in first attempt in September 2021.
My teaching style is flexible, friendly and reflective.
My focus will be towards exam content, building communication and your confidence.
Working with CASC Master Team, I am committed to support you with ups and downs of this journey to enable you cross the finish line.
Dr Ioana Varvari
I am an energetic, committed, and down to earth individual that is aspiring for a career as a Liaison Psychiatrist with a clinical interest in Neuropsychiatry.
I have a natural inclination towards teaching and my long-term career goal is to become a professor of psychiatry. During my Core Training I have received several teaching award nominations and consecutively won the Trainee of the Year Medical Education Award hosted by my organisation.
I started my training in UK 3 years ago and as an IMG, I completed my college exams succesfuly and achieved a robust portfolio.
I am looking forward to pass on my experience to keen trainees working towards passing their exams and improving their knowledge and communication skills. In our sessions I will aim for you to learn the concept of CASC, skills and knowledge needed to pass that can be applied to any scenario.
Dr Adil Amin
Special Interest – General Adult Psychiatry
I have been working in NHS since 2014 and have worked in various trusts across England and North Wales. I stated my Core training in Psychiatry in 2017 and worked in different hospitals across Greater Manchester. Currently I am working as a speciality doctor in General Adult Community and Rehabilitation Unit for almost three years. I work very closely with complex personality disorder, PTSD, Bipolar and patients with psychosis
I feel that my work experience and effective communication skills has really helped me to clear CASC examination on my very first attempt in September 2022. My teaching style is personalised, friendly, supportive, and based on my very own recent experience of CASC.
I look forward to sharing my experience and working with you soon.
