História da Medicina - por Incomfortable OxfordTM
Descrição
Junte-se a um tour que dissecta a longa história da pesquisa médica e prática em Oxford! A história da medicina é sempre um pouco desconfortável. Este passeio o acompanha pela história médica da cidade, desde as pragas medievais, até a fundação da escola de medicina e os primeiros ensaios de penicilina. Longe de ser uma progressão linear direta, a história médica de Oxford é uma conversa complicada sobre equidade de saúde, ética médica e confrontos contínuos sobre o controle do corpo. Todos os nossos passeios são conduzidos por pesquisadores universitários que concluíram o nosso programa oficial de treinamento de Oxford desconfortável. Nossos guias combinam conhecimento especializado e desempenho, garantindo que cada passeio seja uma experiência divertida e educacional.

Really knowledgeable pleasant guide. Learnt things and was given opportunity to discuss the subject..
Thanks Ron for your kind review! Join us again soon.
This was a wonderful tour from beginning to end. Davica was excellent . She shared her knowledge , her sources, gave us thought -provoking questions to ponder and discuss and increased our knowledge in a broad way that included the history and social impacts behind the history. We are so glad we picked this tour. It had aomething for each of us, not just the medical one.
Dear Amy - thank you so much for this fantastic review. We will share your feedback with Devika and we hope to see you on another tour soon!
We arranged for a tour for mature Oxford students who are all working in health services in many parts of the world. Most were completely new to Oxford so this tour was a great introduction to some Oxford history and tied in well with their studies. I'm not a student and I can say it was every bit as interesting and informative for me as it was for the students. Very interactive as well. I highly recommend!
Louis was professional and well informed. He was happy to continue with the tour even though I was the only one who turned up. He had many fascinating anecdotes and the tour felt like a real dialogue. Would recommend. I suppose the only negative thing is that there are so many medically interesting sites in Oxford that it is inevitable that more will be omitted than can be included, and I would probably have chosen different ones. But that is mainly a matter of personal preference
If you already have some knowledge of Oxford then I would recommend this tour. It goes past the surface, to discuss some more of the obscure and unknown facts about the area. Prompting discussions. Would recommend if you want to learn something different about the area.
This tour goes beyond the traditional walking tour format by illuminating hidden aspects of Oxford's history. The guides are experienced, knowledgeable and dedicated to Uncomfortable Oxford's goal of raising awareness through discussion based tours. Not only is this tour an excellent way to explore both the classic and more hidden sites in Oxford but it also leaves you looking at Oxford, and the wider world, differently and more inquisitively. A fabulous tour for those looking to understand Oxford more deeply and in particular the rich medical history of the city.
It has ended half an hour before time and felt like a speedy race. The student spoke really fast supporting herself with some notes. It felt like unrehearsed performance.
Dear Strapcia, we're really sorry that you had such a poor experience on the tour -- it is quite unusual and we will look into what happened. All tours should last at least 1.5h and be conducive to discussion. Please feel free to email us directly if there are further concerns we should address (info at uncomfortableoxford dot com).
This is a great tour with insights into Oxford based writers who you will know and some you may not. Malak is a great guide and was very informative and supportive of a good group discussion at each of our stops. This tour is an excellent and recommend if you want to understand a fuller story of Oxford beyond traditional sightseeing. It’s a very enjoyable experience.
Thank you very much John, for your kind words! We're really glad that you joined us on the tour and we're very glad that you enjoyed our interactive approach as well. We work really hard to make the tour engaging for participants! We would love to have you on our other tours as well :)
