Mikhail Varshavski, 26, who was featured in [_People_ magazine’s 2015 “Sexiest Man Alive” issue](https://www.instagram.com/p/-PM%5Fa8QJZn/), is offering one lucky woman a romantic night out in New York City. But prospective dates first have to donate to a nonprofit he started, [the Limitless Tomorrow Foundation](http://www.limitlesstomorrow.org/), which offers financial assistance to students. They also have to beat out a pool of other donors. “You’ll fly to New York City and stay at a 4-star hotel,” reads the proposal, which was posted on the dating app Coffee Meets Bagel. “You and Mike will dine at a Michelin Star restaurant.” Varshavski, who is described on the website as “the real life McDreamy,” is also on the hunt for a lifelong partner. “I’m actively looking for a serious relationship and surprisingly this fame has not made it simpler to find a compatible partner,” [he told _The Huffington Post_ on Tuesday](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/sexiest-doctor-alive-raffles-date%5Fus%5F569e7098e4b00f3e9862f7a4?qbk2o6r=). The Russian-born man works at Overlook Medical Center in Summit, N.J., where he has been a medical resident for two years. Varshavski has more than 1 million followers on Instagram and is a self-described “avid explorer of life.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4186172/sexiest-doctor-alive-date/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4186172/sexiest-doctor-alive-date/"},"headline":"'Sexiest Doctor Alive' Raffles Off Date for Charity","datePublished":"2016-01-20T01:08:37.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:28:57.133Z","description":"He's been called “the real life McDreamy\"","url":"https://time.com/4186172/sexiest-doctor-alive-date/","keywords":["Newsfeed","viral"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt361afc0631ad19d0/698879b2f887dc092fe94345/sexiest-doctor-alive.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Chan","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-chan/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt361afc0631ad19d0/698879b2f887dc092fe94345/sexiest-doctor-alive.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Dr. Mikhail Varshavski AKA Doctor.Mike Photo Session","caption":"Dr. Mikhail Varshavski poses during a portrait session on Jan. 5, 2016 in Miami Beach, Florida.","creditText":"Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4186172/sexiest-doctor-alive-date/","name":"'Sexiest Doctor Alive' Raffles Off Date for Charity"}}]}] ```
