Great value! Interesting stuff!I visited the museum the day before Halloween, so just observing the "types" of people going in was entertaining. This is the best place to explore if you work in health care or forensics or are just fascinated with anatomy, physiology, or pathology. The musuem had a great "American Medical History 101" (I made that up) section. ...SHOW FULL REVIEW

not worth itI went in with high expectations, after reading all the reviews, but ggrhhhh..... not worth it. most of the displays are wax models, and obviously very hard to believe all the stories behind them. I certainly appreciate the atmosphere, its cozy.... nice place to hang out on winters...OVERALL

not worth the moneythe place has MANY WAX displays, very boring, they have many real skulls to many actually, and all the specimens are in this glass case that the glass is wavy and some of the real stuff they have is too low to the floor. They do not have any ramps for strollers to get in the place and once in to view the downstairs one room they have, you have to ...1 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulSHOW FULL REVIEWOVERALL

Waste of MoneyI thought this place would be really cool and interesting. I was wrong. It's a small exhibit and the majority of the stuff was not the real thing but a wax replica. I found the staff to be rude and heard them yell at someone for using thier cell phone. You can't take pictures or use your cell phone and the small gift shop does not ...0 of 1 Yahoo!

Creepy stuffWhile there are only a few rooms, the place is crammed full of the interesting, weird, and just downright creepy medical curiosities. It is not for casual browsing. But if you like examining and contemplating, and don't mind that some of this stuff was once part of a living person (or the whole person), then this is for you.1 of 1 Yahoo!

A must for any in medicineAs a 30+ year medical professional, this place is the most unique I've ever experienced. I've been back a second time because there is so much to absorb. Absolutely incredible and a must for anyone who is in medicine or who loves the bizarre.2 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

A unique and enlightening experienceI loved the Mutter Museum. At first, its awkwardness and disturbances can throw you off guard (and it's not for the faint of heart!) but for those that can tolerate it, it is extremely fascinating and educational. It makes you open your eyes to some things out of this bubble we call normalcy.1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

Can I get a refund!Do not get any high expectations going to the museum. The website and the reviews did there job to get me to go but in the end after visiting the museum I felt it was over priced for things that a you could see in a high school fair. The people I spoke with coming out shared my feelings as well. Big disapointment.1 of 4 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphere

A very cool experienceThis was listed on Travel Channel's top 10 wierdest places to visit. While staying in Baltimore, my boyfriend and I took the 2 hour drive up to philadelphia and visited the Mutter Museum. It's $10 admission fee was WELL worth it, if you like the wierd and medically interesting things you might see on the discovery channel or TLC.

InterestingThis place was interesting. You have to have a strong stomach for some of the things you will see. I am a premed student, so it was somewhat relevant, but if you are not interested in medicine of the past then this might not be the place for you! Overall, it was a pretty fun place to visit since I live in the area. This is a good place to go on ...You did not find this review helpful.1 of 4 Yahoo!
