The Truth About St. Christopher?s College of Medicine:
1. The professor that the 1st semester students have for Embryology is Dr. Shakil. Dr. Shakil has her M.D from Pakistan and did a residency in Internal Medicine their as well. She does not have a PhD in any of the life sciences and has not participated in a residency that involves a significant exposure to any clinical aspects of Embryology (i.e. OB/GYN, Family Practice, etc?) It is not known to the students whether Dr. Shakil actually took Embryology as a medical student although it is assumed she did. Dr. Shakil?s exposures to matters of Embryology are generally not different from any medical student that just graduated from medical school. Dr. Shakil is often not able to answer questions brought by the students regarding the subject matter as her knowledge of the topic she teaches is rather limited. Dr. Shakil also does not have any substantial European or American clinical exposure. Is she really qualified to be teaching this class??
2. The professor that the 1st semester students have for Cell Biology is Dr. Gray. Dr. Gray has a PhD in Microbiology. Although Dr. Gray does have a PhD in the life sciences, it is not in the area of molecular or cytobiology. Dr. Gray is sometimes incapable of answering questions relating to the subject material. This is possibly because he is teaching outside his area of expertise.
3. The professor that the 1st semester students have for one portion of Histology is Dr. Shawer. Dr. Shawer is an M.D from Egypt that did her residency and practiced as an OB/GYN. She does not have a PhD in any of the life sciences and has not participated in a residency that involves a significant exposure to any clinical aspects of Histology (i.e. Pathology). Dr. Shawer also doubles as one of the General Pathology professors. Dr. Shawer?s exposures to matters of Histology and Pathology are generally not different from that of any medical student that just graduated from medical school. Having a professor teach multiple subjects outside their area of expertise could present a problem for St. Chris getting approved in various states (i.e. New York) Dr. Shawer also does not have any substantial European or American clinical exposure. Is she really qualified to be teaching this Histology class??
4. The professor that the 1st semester students have for Ethics is Dr. Hameed. Dr. Hameed is another M.D from Southern Asia. Dr. Hameed does not have any degree or qualifications in the fields of ethics or law. Dr. Hameed also triples as the Genetics professor, as well as one of the Physical Diagnosis professors. Having a professor teach multiple subjects outside their area of expertise could present a problem for St. Chris getting approved in various states (i.e. New York.) Dr. Hameed also does not have any substantial European or American clinical exposure. Is she really qualified to be teaching this Ethics class??
5. The sound system that the current 1st semester students use in order to hear the professor is actually a Karaoke Machine with a wireless microphone attachment!
6. The classrooms for St. Christopher?s are indeed situated above a Pizza Hut in the Town Centre. The windows on the upper floor of the building that can be seen above the Pizza Hut are indeed the windows of the St. Chris classrooms.
7. St. Christopher?s currently does not have a library of any kind or type. The only books currently available to the students through the school are a single copy of a textbook for any class that is currently being taught.
8. There are currently no labs of any kind (for classes or research) for the students to work in at St. Christopher?s.
9. Students do not have any anatomical specimens or models to work with besides one plastic skeleton and a second plastic anatomical model that contains various removable plastic organs. The students do not have access to actual bones except while at King?s college of Medicine during Anatomy Laboratory.
10. The computer laboratory at St. Christopher?s consists of 5 computer systems with no printers or other computer peripherals of any kind. The 5 computer systems connect to the internet via a wireless network that is only operational less than half of the time.
11. There is no new building for the students. The new building that was intended for the students was decided against. The only new structure that St. Christopher?s is currently attempting to purchase is a small building across the street to move the faculty into. No classes will be held in this structure. The current student building behind and above the Pizza Hut is going to be used for at least the next five years.
12. St. Christopher?s no longer has any association with the University of Luton or any other institution of higher education except for the Anatomy and Neuroanatomy Dissection that takes place at Guys, Kings, Thomas (GKT) College in London. Although previous semesters of students have had access to the University of Luton's Library, Computer Area, Study Areas, and Laboratories, the administration of the school has discontinued this association without any proper replacement.
13. If you express an opinion about this school that the owners of St. Christopher?s do not agree with, and they can determine who you are, you will be threatened and coerced into towing the party line or told to leave. This is the reason that many students on this forum post anonymously because of the potential horrific repercussions that can occur if one was found to be telling the truth about St. Christopher?s anywhere.
14. St. Christopher?s no longer offers hospital access from the first semester. The first opportunity that the students have for patient access is during the 4th semester as part of one of their classes.
15. St. Christopher?s webpage is severely out of date and represents various things that are blatantly no longer true. This webpage should no longer be trusted to provide any truthful or factual information about the medical college.
16. St. Christopher?s administration promise many things, but many of these things often turn out not to be true or remain to be seen. Please keep this in mind ?A promise is just words and nothing more until what was promised materializes? and we have yet to see any of the promises made by the St. Chris administration bear fruit.
Some people on this site you should watch out for that are from St. Chris are mtt, bts4202, and futrphysician. The first two are moderators on the St. Chris forum and are paid by St. Chris to make sure that certain controversial material never reaches the public. Futrphysician has been known to outright lie on these forums in order to protect the school and is also a SGA Class rep which ties him to the administration of the school. As you can imagine all three of these people have something to gain by censoring the people of these forums with regard to matters involving St. Chris and everything to lose if they don't. Heed their words at your own peril
