This was a private meeting and it was a great experience .

The royal college and the Huntarian museum never fails to provide, a rich, education and inspiring experience. Irrispective of age, knowledge or background the interactive and naturalist exhibits are accessible to everyone. I couldn't recommmed this experience more, visit, donate and allow it to continue for everyone.

RCS is a remarkable place of which the report headlines inspire for generating ideas for dealing with issues in perioperative care for patient safety. Such reports are about; disjointed care, clinical pathway not patient centered and protracted clinical episodes. RCS could be one of the first disciplines engaging in perioperative care, to join a common site in the perioperative journey of the patient bridging key points of communications amongst other disciplines involved in the patient care.

One of the best institute in surgical training since 1801.

Most prestigious college of all colleges of UK and Ireland

It is an amazing place. Full of history and interesting things to see. It was an honor and something i will remember all my life being able to lecture in such an iconic venue

It gives me honor and the greatest pleasure to visit the royal college one day and study in it

Inspirational and educational! John Hunter was a genius and The Royal College of Surgeons has been the one of the highlights of my degree to date.

I worked at the college for 7 years on the appeal and public relations side...and loved it. An amazing building.

I am proud to be a Fellow of this great institution.

Felt very privileged to be able to attend my son's graduation yesterday, wonderful place.

Different from your normal museum, if you like jars and jars of specimens this is right up your street, timelining surgery through the decades, very informative and clearly explained,

Best experience for a long time, I felt very privileged to have attended a course their

Attended one day sutures skills on dummy and life of a surgeon and Huntarian museum, couple time back.

Amazing building, you can feel the history from the moment you walk in the sculptures, painting's, so much to see and learn how surgeons have perfected the skills used in procedures

Amazing building, packed with statues and incredible pieces of medical history. I attended a conference for work and it was well worth taking the time to explore the building.

I have sent all the documents with medical certificate attested by british council bangladesh but i got a mail that royal college didn'nt receive the medical certificate.

What should i do now?

Fabulous place, privileged to have had the opportunity to spend some time there.
