Whether you're finishing residency in Houston, fellowship in Chicago, or established in practice in New Jersey — Ittefaq verifies every physician, dentist, resident, and fellow through NPI validation before a profile ever appears in search.
Medical training doesn't leave room for a long, slow courtship. Match search needs to work around 80-hour weeks and unpredictable call schedules, not against them.
General matrimony platforms can't tell a real attending from someone who typed 'doctor' into a bio field. That gap wastes your limited time.
The person you least want stumbling across your profile is someone from your own hospital. Most platforms have no answer for this; Ittefaq's Coworker Shield does.
Career stage matters as much as specialty — a PGY-1 and an attending are living very different realities, even in the same field.
We validate US physicians and dentists against the NPI registry, then confirm active license standing with the relevant state medical board. Residents and fellows are verified through their training program directly. This typically takes 1-3 business days, and your profile stays invisible to other members until it's complete.
One of the largest concentrations of Muslim physicians in the country, across major hospital systems in both states.
A strong base of residents and fellows across the city's major academic medical centers.
Home to some of the largest medical centers in the US, with a growing Muslim physician community.
Most of our resident members join during training, not after. Career-stage filters mean you're matched with people who understand exactly what your current year of residency looks like — waiting until you're an attending just means missing those years.
List all of them during onboarding — our verification team manually confirms affiliated campuses during Coworker Shield setup so nothing slips through.
Yes, this is one of the standard profile fields alongside specialty and training stage.
