Founded by registrars, for registrars
We started Lorraine because we experienced firsthand the frustration of preparing for specialty board exams in South Africa.
Our story
Quality study materials were scarce, expensive, and rarely aligned with CMSA requirements. We found ourselves sharing notes with colleagues, hunting for resources, and often feeling unprepared despite putting in countless hours of study.
Today, Lorraine is the trusted companion for thousands of South African doctors on their path to specialist certification. Every question, every feature, every update is designed with one goal: helping you pass your boards.
We believe that every registrar deserves access to high-quality, affordable exam preparation tools. That's why we've built Lorraine to be accessible, comprehensive, and specifically aligned with what South African doctors need to succeed.
