Physician offering help for this cycle

I scribe for a dr who asked if there is anything he can do to help me with my current cycle. Aside from his main practice (where I work), he works at a hospital affiliated with one of the medical schools left on my list. I know II are wrapping up there soon, but is there anything I can appropriately ask of him? I don't think I can have him submit a letter or anything. He knows a lot of other doctors there ofc, but how do I go about navigating this? He asked who works on admissions there, but he's not really familiar with them. I have no II or A's yet so I'm kinda desperate but don't want to come off as unethical or whatnot.

Even if the dean of admissions is his best friend I don't think reaching out to them would help much. It would also be unethical, as you said. Your time would be better spent improving your application. If he can write you a good letter for the next cycle that would be more appropriate.
