Cardiovascular Pathology

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

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.

Again, this guy knows his stuff and he keeps me engaged with the lecture 100%

great explanation, I like how the lecturer linked the letters to numbers, it is easy to memorize it that way ..

Killed it. He covers everything with the correct mindset for approaching vignettes.

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

The best thing about how Dr. Raj presents is that he continually asks questions and brings the topics together. Keep being awesome, Doc.

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 well put together and easy to understand. now i understand what was complicated reading my book

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

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!

"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.

Love his lectures, really good explanation and I love his attitude. He more motivated and want to learn more. Thank you !

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.

This is after all a Pathology course. Normally, management is not discussed here, but you guys did. Thank you!

I have traditionally had difficulty with the cardiovascular system, but listening to Dr. Raj and his cardiovascular lectures has changed that completely!! Absolutely love it!

Need to further explore surgical and percutaneous treatment options incl valvuloplasty and in which patients valve replacement vs valvuloplasty is preferred

This was a well explained lecture but a trend I have noticed with these videos so far is the immense focus on physiology at the expense of diagnosis and management which is important for step 2. The avoidance of vasodilators, ACE-Inhibitors etc was glossed over. Moreover, a discussion of surgical options including valvuloplasty and percutaneous valve replacement was omitted. Common on guys if you are serious about step-2 and want people to transition from established providers like Kaplan then you need to focus more on management. I'm beginning to lose faith in these videos

Really good talk but would have been great to discuss the choice between rate and rhythm controlled Rx as well as a section devoided to AVNRT and AVRT. I'm still a bit confused about why the management differs between these two supraventricluar tachy and WPW

The lecture on management was extremely superficial and not suitable for board exams. No mention of: Newer agents such as ticagrelor/prasugrel When you would choose PCI vs thrombolysis risk stratification of NSTEMI patients with the TIMI score and subsequent angio When you would use CABG first line This talk I feel is more step 1 then step 2. Step 2 needs to focus more on decision making rather than lengthy talk on the basic pathophys I had to go back to references to Toronoto Notes to fill this gap

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

Really great talks and focus on the underlying pathophysiology. However, it would have been good to cover the management of dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy which differs somewhat to dilated cardiomyopathy

Excellently presented and directly inline with my PDI course lectures...

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

Didactically the lesson was excellent. I have already witnessed atherosclerosis classes, but the priority given to dyslipidemia was exceptional.

Dr Raj, Is amazing at teaching. I have never gained as much knowledge in a short space of time and retained it. Thank you
