I think there are really two questions here - preclinical and clinical
Preclinical - a good mix of phd's and MDs - there are a few professors who really stand out - the curriculum is integrated so you will work across disciplines all year. The anatomy professors are commonly ranked the highest of all professors and are great in the lecture hall and in the lab. There has been a big overhaul in physiology and Rob Zachow is now in charge. He is a little intimidating but a good teacher and approachable - honestly he has single handed lay improved the physiology curriculum across the preclinical years. His test questions are hard (an understatement) but I promise you will think step 1 physio questions are a joke. On the flip side pharmacology often gets a bad wrap but I think that's the nature of memorizing many drugs and AE's ect
Clinical faculty are variable obviously depending on who you work with. The staffing at RWJUH is excellent - I feel they are just as good at teaching/educating in the clinical setting as where I am now for my residency. There are very good core faculty at jersey shore where you spend 10-20% of your time but some private attendings who are more business and less education. Princeton is similarly hit or miss but improving as RWJ is now starting to staff the medicine service
- if you have more specific questions I'm happy to help
