Temple University Reviews of Doctorates in Health Sciences

"I am currently an enrolled at the medical school, Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. I believe this program is going to help me to be the best doctor that I can be in order to help make my community a better place. I feel like a perfect fit here and I know that anyone would do well to come here."

"Disclaimer: This review is for the Podiatric program, but that was not offered as an option, nor was "other" button. Pros: Temple has one of the busiest clinics, if not *the* biggest clinic out of all the podiatry schools. This affords the student an opportunity for hands on work starting 3rd year. The curriculum is quite robust and many classes are shared with the MD students. However, we get an extra semester of anatomy with a special focus on the lower extremity. Out of all the podiatry schools, Temple has the most recognizable name, which was a selling point for me. Add to that a vibrant city scene and relatively affordable conditions, and you get an attractive package. Cons: The school is located away from main campus and the new medical sciences building. However, it's located in Chinatown, so if you like ethnic foods this might not be a disadvantage. Temple's tuition is slightly higher than other schools."

"As a future podiatrist, I hope to improve people s quality of life by improving diabetes, bunions, and reduction the negative effects of multiple medical diagnoses that can effect the lower extremities. some negative aspects to the program are the high costs of tuition and length of the academic program."

"Temple Medicine is a great program and the people involved are very helpful and attentive"

"Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine is one of the best in its field. We are presented with a great amount of clinical experience, accompanied with the extra competitive academics. Also, the faculty is of really high quality and is always readily available for any questions we may have. The cons I can think of are that the area isn't the best, but it's overpowered by the large transportation availability. Also, the cost of the graduate dorms, for the quality of them, may be a little over priced. In general, I am totally in love with my graduate program, here in Temple University."

"The school of Podiatric Medicine at Temple University is a great school with a lot to offer. It is in a great area compared to the other medical locations. There is a lot to do with simple transportation and many places to eat. The facilities are a little outdated but it doesn't have an effect on the education quality at all."

"It is a very competitive program that produces great clinicians. It's very difficult to find any cons to a school that makes you a great doctor."

"Temple is an amazing medical school, designed to prepare students for a tough and challenging career in the medical field with great clinical and basic science skills."
