Cardiology

Lecturer jumps around, wastes time with unnecessary guff, doesn't explain the graph well at all. Incredibly frustrating.

Watching the entire series on CHF was incredibly helpful. Do not let the first lecture overwhelm you, I came to really enjoy his lectures.

Lecturer can't seem to deliver a coherent sentence, jumps around in his delivery. Did not make clear that in emergency situation reduction in BP should be no more than 25%.

Clear lectures delivered at a good pace, and the questions that test your clinical reasoning skills with the content are incredibly useful.

would be much more useful if he didn't rush and actually explained the mechanism of action. I'm much better off reading a textbook than watching this

uses too many abbreviations without explanation - for example, what the heck is EDV??

Not bad, it seems to jump around and rush a little bit. It would be good if CHF in general was properly defined and explained before etiologies were spoken about

One of the greatest lecturers I even had the pleasure of listening to. I love listening to this guy.

Great lecture. Absolutely the best for boards, Keep up the great work

Thank you very much This time I really understand some of the cardiac diseases I loved the way you explained the ecg Almost all are perfect I don't know how to appreciate

provided slide sheets and lectures are mismatched.not so helpful.

There were some points in the lecture were the lecture was in audible. I read along and there were just dots in the space that i didn't understand what was being said. Over all it was very helpful

Temarios muy importantes. Videos con explicasiones que ayuda mucho para aprender sobre el campi de la medicina.

Explica exactamente lo que es, me ha ayudado mucho para dar un exposicion del tema

If more stars are available to rate you professor Raj, and this course please let me know, so I can add some more, it is incredibly easy for me walking through the USMLE book by prior listening to your very clarifying lessons.

Amazing explanations each lecture! Thank you so much, Dr. Raj!

Professor thank you very much for such a great curse, I agree that it would be much better with cardiac sounds in real time during the explanation so our ears get accustomed to them, also the explanation should be included during the questioning section at the end of the video just like in previous lectures.

Muy buena clase, es muy conciso y para nada aburrido, las actualizaciones deberian ser del medico.

I loved this course by Dr. Alpert. Very clear, I finally understand most cardio diseases. I agree also with most other collegues stating that perhaps would be useful to have responses to questions.

One of the best Lecturers on lecturio hands down. Defined one of the best explanations I’ve gotten on this topic

I was able to understand the topic well. Plus questions are provided to evaluate my learning. It was very good.

nice job! I also learn new knowledge from the profound and comprehensive lecture.

This doctor is always demeaning. He clearly demonstrates why instructors should learn to say phrases like "Some students" or "often times students will confuse..." It is significantly less demeaning than "You". Also, he ASSUMES we are thinking wrong "Why in the world would you?", "Don't do that!" , or "Let it go!" I never had it, so why would I let it go??? He needs to eliminate all these comments about how he thinks we are thinking and just communicate the information. It is hard to concentrate on the pathophysiology when he is constantly projecting negativity. Learning is supposed to be a positive experience, not a negative one.

I really found the teaching methods used here beneficial. He'd go through the pathway and emphasizing key steps, then point out where they'll be important down the line, then come back to continue the pathway. The repetition helped so that when he taught the disease I knew why it was resulting in that outcome. Really a fan of it. Also, keep the memory cues coming.

Simple way to understand the RAAS system and the meds associated with it.

Much good information that will help you in your clinical practice and your board perfect combination

explica demasiado rapido y no señala las graficas para poder entender de que habla.

Excellent explanation by dr carlo raj. I have completely understand the topic. Thanks so much to carlo raj

Explained everything in simple terms and I finally understand based on previous lectures and this one why we would use such drugs and when. Maybe more details into the mechanism (extra lecture) on such medications. I wished there were explanations on the questions. I'm not quite sure why aspirin would not be used if it could treat coagulating factors.

Love it, complete, simple and reliable. Very competent teacher and nice slides

It’s conceptual and easy to understand & just love the way dr carlo raj sir teach. Thanks

points out the important points and links with other knowledge

Reccomend it it s very helpful i joyed warching it thank you very much

I find the instruction and examples beneficial. Dr. Alpert is clear and does not complicate a difficult subject.

He is a super brilliant Professor, Ich empfehle jeden Arzt und medizine-studenten zu sehen

I really like it, but sadly it is not enough for my exam. (Semmelweis University, Hungary, Europe)

good summary for HTN, BUT I found a big difference with NHS guidelines for treatment of HTN Here you mentioned that thiazides are the first choice but there ACEIs or CCB is the first and best choice to start treatment of HTN

I like it because it is short and sharp and more focused . Also it is more easy to understand.

Concise and very high yield. I love the clinical illustrations provided.

this is an amazing way of putting things together, thank you so much for the nice presentation.

Good for refreshing ,anybody can review it once because , it quick and easy explanation .

Nice one but it would have been better explaining more how why . That should have been better. Like 1st sound . Why how

Please let's know current treatment. As per guidelines which is better. Any trial which one to fallow. We need more good pathophysiology

I love Dr. Raj's way of presenting. Very engaging, intuitive in presenting the concepts and always amusing! Highly useful :)

for those who preparing for exam its will be helpfull

its helpful and his presentation is quite good,but why physiology, Biochemistry, preclinical subjects are not up to the mark.please reset a new subscription option,like preclinical, clinical etc.otherwise i have to say bye.

very good lecture, concise and high yield. very helpful for the boards

I liked it a lot, because the teacher explained one by one from the basic concept. Hence, I felt I could learn all the knowledge on the pathology and physiology at the same time.

Really easy to understand it with lecturio And easy system thank you

An excellent teacher. Learnt more from this lecture than any other.

I am using free version and trying to see how good the videos are. So far all the videos hv been so clear and understandable including this video. Thanks lecturio for your great work.

fantastic teaching method, love the practical examples and slight humor, wakes you up.

I would like lectures with more informations suitable for post graduate study

I think is a great review because it goes right to the point. Short videos witch make it really easy to sit down and just listen to Dr. Raj. Will recommend to all my medical friends.

It was extremely good. I understand it very easily and it will very helpful to me

Dr Alpert is very wise and knows how to teach with his vast experience. I'm very visual and all of the lectures in Lecturio are like that. I use Lecturio for a fast review and gives me the confidence to answer questions to my professors and shine like a star. It is amazing how much you can learn in a little time. Dr Alpert shows a lot of pictures and graphs to enhance your knowledge and confidence. Excellent job Dr Alpert!

I learn so fast and easy all the most know arrhythmias with Dr Raj. He is fun, knows how to teach, blue print materials, great pics and graphs. I never learned that well my dysrrhythmias before my lectures with Dr Raj. Bravo Dr Raj! My grades are improving big time. I wish I had you as a teacher before. Than you so much Lecturio and Dr Raj!

This is the first time that I have a lecture with Dr Raj. Definitely recommend! He is very methodic and fun which makes it easy to understand and retain for your test. Also I love the quizzes in between the lectures that help you to reinforce the material so well. Excellent job Dr Raj! Thank you so much.

I feel there was too much superfluous info that made the series longer than it could have been. Otherwise quite okay

Love Dr. Raj, he is my favorite. His lectures are a great mixture of information and questions

I think, he is an expert of teaching. He explains everything very well. Thank you so much...

Dr. Raj is the best! He is funny and he makes arrythmias ridiculously simple. I recommend his lectures for everyone!

Very good lecture about the MI chronology. The Professor explains very well what we can read in "First Aid".

Lecture well explained and illustrated...makes a big difference in being able to follow and understand...so appreciated!

A very good course, quite thorough! Since this course is also recommended for MBBS students (typically a British degree), it may be worth including some of the NICE guidelines when it comes to treatment as that is what our med school exams are based on. Additionally, the questions in this course aren't very challenging and honestly a little weak - not really at exam level more like a "let's check if you listening quiz". Overall, a very helpful review though.

Lecturio is a great supplement to other educational resources. The videos are high quality. Dr. Alpert does a great job presenting the information (nice pace, speaks well), the videos are accessible from anywhere, & I would recommend them as a great supplemental medical source. I'm actually a pharmacist who was looking to get a more detailed medical picture on disease states & therapeutic management. I'm lucky to have stumbled on to Lecturio. It allows me to see the whole picture the way an M.D. looks at it and it's easier to retain information when you see it vs. reading it. Highly recommend it for all healthcare professionals.

I like the method of teaching of Dr Raj Learned alot

I am a Pharmacist and preparing for my exams in US. I have really find this app useful and lectures are easy comprehensive and in best way. Thanks for arranging best professors.

The lectures are clearly and usefully,if there's more details,it will be better.

Always inciteful with the eminent Dr Carlo Raj. It brought very much understanding of the topic

Thank you Dr. Raj! I have a much better understanding of valvular pathologies.

very nice lecture and good tips. i should follow you earlier

Good and clear and Quick presentation. After d’avancement on futur vidéos i can beter express

Difficult to follow because of not using pointers(instead of fingers) during explanation of the graphs.There are no numbers of pressure and volume values.I hope you will pay more attention for the graphs and marking or demonstration using some kind of pointing like pointer or change in color during explanation the relevant part of the graph.

Excellent explanation with good connection between norma and pathophysiology.Would you please show us the same lecture with real audio sounds from normal people and patients then demonstrate these maneuvers with this amazing explanation?

This guy is just a great teacher, everything he explains is clear!

Highly recommend this lecture to anyone studying cholesterol synthesis (biochem/pharm/patho/etc).

Wonderful Lecture He has delivered. All contents are good Very useful affert,

Honestly, it is a godsend. The videos are clear, concise and fun! Dr. Raj is passionate and amazing! Also I watched many others videoes and all are fantastic! I wish I got to know about this earlier, it would have helped me immensely. It has lectures from MCAT to USMLE 2 so all the courses are covered, never again I'll be stuck with not understanding and never again will reading the book become so time-consuming. The bookmatching aplication that it has is genius and also just makes my life much easier. I am using this program for my PANCE and it facilitates my learning to be more effective! Thank you all so much for putting this together! Highly recommended.

very good lecture from experienced cardiologist. Simple explanation and easy to understand

Could really include some of the image diagnoses, seeing as you talk about them. Other than that good lecture.

The most SUPER !!AWESOME!!AMAZING!!STUNNING lecture that I have seen in my whole life as a medical student. DR Carlo Raj has passion and intellectual ability to deliver His lectures in a manner that I have never witnessed before with any other lecturers. combining all the important physio points with path.I wish i could explain how happy I was jumping in my room after this lecture. Amazing! you are always my my hero Dr. Carlo. How I wish one day I could just have a handshake with you. May Allah bless , you and your family AMEEN!!. I would recommend this to all the international medical students preparing for the USMLE exam.

easy grasp, well laid out and proper delivery for passing the step 2ck exams.

Very much appreciate his teaching style, but does stray some at times.

Very good. I believe it is the only way to learn, through massive repetition.

I like this video becaus of concise explanation on etiology, patho and Treatment

Not quite advanced enough for MDs. Nor is it in-depth enough.

-There was alot of jumping ahead and then circling back to the same point which made what should have been a 19 minute lecture, took about an hours lecture with all the pausing, going through transcripts and even looking up certain references myself to complete this lecture. The whole point of lecturio is high yield learning in a timely fashion. I appreciate the effort done and liked his style of teaching enthusiasm, however there needs to be less going off on tangents before the point has been made.

The simplified approach has made learning and understanding so easy....He is such a great teacher with a deep understanding of his subject area....

I loved how you dissected the topic so clearly, making clear distinctions between the different classes of drugs, how they work, where they work, why we use them and who needs them. GREAT lecture.

Thank you for your commitment to medical education. I am sure that many medical professionals and students are benifiting in an enormous way from Lecturio!

Really like the way Dr Alpert explains everything with a lot example and concept to apply in the real life.

Dr. Shukle is amazing. His lecture is so clear and "pin points" what we need to know. Thanks for your help !

It is summed up and easy to understand and becoase of this it is a great start to the arritmias study.

The lecture in a very clear way explains the crucial mechanisms of Hypertension and helps to understand and remember forever these complex mechanisms

This course is near impossible to take for a European, as our curriculum is structured differently than in the US. Dr. Raj keeps referring to diseases that may have been covered in another video, and sometimes he just refers to them by acronym, not even a full name, so redundant are they. But for a European who hasn't had that part yet, using them as an example to explain a concept means we don't understand the concept at all.

Actually at the beginning,it was very hard for me to follow Dr. Raj and it was very distracting, but now I find pathology lectures as the highest yield ones.I should stay alert during the lecture otherwise I'd listen to it again and again to digest the amazing connections among various pathologies.

ECGs are still ambiguous. there should atleast be a pointer on the screen to indicate what and where he is talking about. I am lost in his coordinates. Its like teaching map skills without a map legend

Good explanation of topic and therapy and management. Understandable information of drugs used.

personality of teacher fun yet informative learned a lot. I think that was ten words.

Great explanation great job thank you so much for your efforts

The way you explain,I like it,thank you Dr Raaj

amazing review, clear concise and informative, better than any lecture ive sat in

In general, great deal of high yield information with god connection to other pathologies or other specialities of the same pathology. The problem is that sometimes those connections are not going smooth but like jumps leading to distraction and may be difficult to follow.Using techniques like light pointer or shading ,.... could be helpful . Thanks a lot Lecturio.Thanks a lot dr Carol Raj

He explains everything in way that is so easy to remember for exam and general practice

Really good information and well explained with good sense of humor.

Instructor is thorough and entertaining. The material is presented in a logical and straightforward manner, which is easy to comprehend and provides an excellent overview of the medical subjects needed to complete USMLE Step 2

I like it very much because the teacher described clearly and easily to understand. this lecture is actually good for everyone who wanna learn about the basic ECG of dysrhythmia which used to be hard to understand for me but now...????????????????

Superb explanations in hypertension.very simple logic and scientific explanations

He is really good not forgetting his sense of humour makes the lecture more interesting. Wish to become a doctor like him near future. God bless Carlo Raj. Keshvinder Singh from Malaysia.

Dr. Raj is a bit abrasive in his style. I don't really like the way he acts like a drill Sargent. But the content is good

I can't get enough of this course. Too good it made the subject very clear to me.

great lecture. repearting important thing again and again. lecture looks like static but it is not. He actively ask something and waiting your thought to help you understand.

wow... physio, patho, clinically.. all comes together. It is worth...

Good attempt for explanation of such a wide and tough topic

very good.it is one of the best video of cardiology.

Everything is clearly explained by the lecturer. In case of student´s questions, the lecturer gives a detailed answer. Thank you!

Dr. Raj not only defines the concepts very well but I especially love the way he goes into details about what is happening with our patients, giving us real life examples to remember.

very clear, easy to understand, slides (pictures and tables) are very helpful to memorize the content

One of the best I have ever watched! I recommend it to understand better CVS.

Excellent video! I like how Dr Raj explains every detail. Perfect source to learn!

LOL That adenosine mental image will NEVER leave me ajajajajajaja

Dr,Raj you are awesome teaching skills better than my university professor,looking forward to see more of your videos. Regards, Raj Patel

The most logical, clinically/exam relevant, compact, yet complete information you are going to get for cardio pharm. He explains in a way that is relevant to the pathophys. Very grateful!

This guy grows on you. He keeps you engaged. Not many professors can do that! If you don't "get him" I would say you don't "get medicine" either cause he's the real deal.

Dr Alpert, a well respected figure in cardiogy, narrates this course in an enjoyable, highly professional way. The 30 to 40 minutes sessions are, to my opinion, much more academic then some of the 2-3 min based lectures. I do want to point out that only by chance i have found the course as it lacks paradoxically from the clinical curriculum. That said, i would love to hear more of his talks and know more of this critical discipline. Kind regards. Omri

Clear and concise. Dr Raj has an engaging and interactive method of lecture that helps make this topic much easier to understand.

Very very very good teacher Nice topics Well govered I like it so much

I chose this rating because Dr Raj explains concepts on a level that I can understand and remember, I love the integration with physiology that he uses to explain pathology - absolutely great! Thank you Dr Raj!

He repeats stuff a lot (in a good and memorable way) which makes me remember and understand the lesson easily. Plus he has good sense of humor!

Very clear content, very concise and easy to understand. Covers a lot of topics

I use Goljan and Pathoma for pathology and my med school "assigns" reading from Robbins Pathology. All three are great resources for preclinical pathology courses and Goljan and Pathoma are the go-to's for every medical students prep for Step 1. Dr. Raj is not like his mentor Dr. Goljan. I have yet to see a true pathogenesis lecture or even see histological images of any of the heart diseases (he barely even has gross images of cardio pathology). He spends time covering management/treatment when he should be covering relevant preclinical pathology. I had high hopes from a guy whose mentor is Dr. Goljan. Hopefully his other pathology subjects are better.

Awesome class, thank you for all the learning. Hope to see more lectures from this!

Good pathofis; understanding the basics helps alot; its alot of info and trying to wire it in my head isnt easy; But it was a good explantion

very High yield points and clinically integrated , usmle step based lecture & concept making Thanks

i have seen many lectures to for concept but this is Clinically oriented much integrated required for USMLE steps.... Thanks

This is a very good course with focus on the most important material. Furthermore he keeps drawing lines to other diseases and physiology giving a good understanding of the greater picture. Only thing I miss in this lecture is recordings of the different sounds you'll hear on auscultation instead of just mentioning what you'll hear. Great lecture

Dr Raj is the best teacher in the world, thank you sir!

Dr. Shunkle provides a great explanation of the RAAS. The lecture follows nicely along with my book and studies.

"Now once this patient is giving you such a history, what would you want to give that patient automatically? You give this patient something in which there is going to be relief from the chest pain. Correct? What does that mean to you? It means underneath the tongue anytime that there's chest pain, you place nitroglycerin correct? Sublingual." I'm sorry, and i really don't want to sound rude, but this is not how a professional teacher should speak. When i hear this i just get very confused, and i already have my teachertoconfuse me. Dr. Raj use this rethorical questions all the time and they're very annoying. What i like about lecturio's lessons is the fact that almost all the teachers use very easy sentences when they speak, and they use a lot schemes and pictures to be more clear.

Excellent Integration with Biochemistry that enables long term retention of what was learned in the first year of medical school.

The questions were a little easier than what is normally asked. Though the hyperlipidemia lecture was excellent.

Like it very much for education purpose very good.thanls for lecturio and the whole group for this

That was incredible! This just solidified everything from 2 weeks of cardio

Lecture is Great I would like to see more EKG 12 lead on step to read them Diana

You make pharmacology so much less intimidating and much easier to understand. Thanks!

Very concise & straight to the point I am glad I stumbled into this creative site.

It gets easier to understand hard topics with these videos

Great lecturer! Easy to understand and the visuals help a lot.

Great overviews with very concise explanations!! Dr. Alpert's lecture is very easy to be understood. Thanks much! Hope the application become more affordable soon.

THE SIMPLE AND PRACTICAL GUIDE I WOULD SUGGEST THESE COURSES TO ALL MEDICAL DOCTORS

Some topics like ECG could be covered in much more depth. Not really at medical school exam depth

I am constantly looking for good videos on youtube that coincide with my med school curriculum. Now that I have Lecturio, I can access videos all in one place. I haven't found a comprehensive resource quite like this one. The lectures seem to follow my curriculum quite well and hit a lot of the same topics. This is great because it only reinforces what I need for success on exams and boards. I am still figuring out how to best use this resource. For now, I am watching the lectures that follow my class work at school! Thank you!

Nice I reviewed the Medications of Cardiovascular in Just 2 hours so that I can back to the text with great background with all these medications

Excellent course! Lots of pertinent information explained simply , thanks Prof. Alpert

I love studying cardiology. I have plans to be a cardio Nurse. Professor. Joseph Alpert is an excellent teacher

thank you prof.alpert for this nice lictures i had so much fun learning from it
