I really enjoyed this class. This was my 1st step towards emergency medicine. Now I realize that this is what I love. All the teachers...made this class memorable. The teachers were able to take the book and add a ton of personal experiences and practical applications. All the teachers encouraged questions and made this a great environment for learning.

One of the amazing elements of this course has been the extensive roster of instructors we have had the privilege to learn from. The instructors were not only knowledgeable, but relayed the information in an interesting, and often humorous way. No matter the circumstances, each instructor taught with obvious commitment and dedication to teaching.
