It's an interesting subject, this was really the first module in the 111 series where you ACTUALLY learn how to treat diseases rather than only learn about problems that happen in physiological systems. It honestly felt like we were learning useful information for at least half the time. However the problem is, the lectures are incredibly rushed, he talks the entire time (excluding the 5 min breaks) so you should record lectures if you are not a fast typer. As far as the exam goes, it is multiple-multiple choice, and you can earn negative points for wrong answers, so don't guess. Free response was OK, a lot of the time he didnt ask extremely detailed questions, he likes you to know the overall concept and NOT to memorize like a robotic asian.

Everyone "likes" his lectures, but if you take a minute to think about it, its terribly inefficient. Moves at a snail pace because he has to write everything down and draw all the pictures. What could be covered in 30 min is covered in 1 hour. discussions are mandatory and smell like turd. his midterm suck the round things between my legs (i'm a guy). his entire exam is free response, and because they are standardized tests for 150 some students, they TAs look for key words and give points accordingly. spend hours memorizing details and forget about concepts to ace his tests.
