About Us
Our Mission
Ascent Medicine was built from the ground up by doctors who’ve been through it. Our mission is to give GP trainees the teaching we never had—delivered by genuine experts, not generic slides
More About the Founders
Dr. Amar Basra and Dr. Jeevan are the driving forces behind AscentMed, a company committed to revolutionizing medical education. With extensive clinical expertise, a passion for teaching, and a dedication to supporting healthcare professionals, they continue to inspire and mentor the next generation of clinicians. Through their innovative courses, they empower doctors at every stage of their careers.

Dr Amar Basra
GP, GP Partner, GP Trainer
Dr Amar Basra is a GP partner and trainer based in a large, urban practice. He has a special interest in cardiology, alongside a strong focus on teaching, mentoring, and practice management. He is passionate about supporting clinicians at all stages of their careers and has been actively involved in the education of his multidisciplinary team.
Dr Basra graduated from St George’s, University of London, with a BSc and MBBS. Coming from a non-medical background, he experienced first-hand the challenges of entering medicine without prior connections or insider knowledge. These experiences have shaped his down-to-earth and supportive approach to teaching.
He believes the most effective education comes from those who genuinely understand their subject and the practical realities of clinical work—not from those simply reading off slides. Through his company, Dr Basra is committed to delivering engaging, relevant, and accessible training that empowers healthcare professionals to grow in confidence, skill, and leadership.
