The Mutter Museum

I believe exhibitions like the Mutter Museum are important.  Medical maladies and injuries, deformities and the like are all interesting.  The purpose of a museum is to educate and to foster knowledge.  This museum clearly serves that purpose.  We only see what is on display, not what is archived.  As non-medical students, should we be the ones to judge how valuable this museum is to medical science? I'm willing to bet that there are many students and doctors who will testify as to not only the validity, but also the important of museums like the Mutter.
