Small & inconvenient
医学博物馆的点评
点评：As a healthcare provider, I’m always interested in science and medical museums. We planned a day specifically around going to this museum (which is NOT part of the Smithsonian, and nowhere near the National Mall). Thanks to some metro track work, what should have been a 30-45 minute trip became an hour and half journey. Further, it’s not really walkable from the metro station. So logistically speaking, I would suggest visiting only if you have a car and not if you’re relying solely on public transit.
The museum itself is quite small. There are lots and lots of real specimens to look at, and a docent came through with a cart of preserved organs for people to touch if they wanted. It was remarkable to get to see the bullet that killed Abe (and some of his blood stains!) as well as Garfield’s spine, but I have to be honest that the museum didn’t live up to my expectations. While there were a few unique offerings, it seemed like a lot of it was just multiple examples of the same thing, and it didn’t feel super educational for me.
I can imagine that someone without preexisting knowledge about the human body might find this a lot more interesting, so I don’t want to discourage visiting. I probably wouldn’t suggest making a special trip like we did, but if you’re in Silver Spring/Forest Glen already for other things, go for it.

翻译：作为一名医疗保健提供者，我一直对科学和医学博物馆很感兴趣。我们特意计划了一天时间参观这个博物馆（它不属于史密森尼博物馆，也离国家广场很远）。由于地铁轨道施工，原本30-45分钟的路程变成了一个半小时。而且，从地铁站步行到博物馆也不太方便。所以从交通角度来说，我建议只有开车的人才去参观，而不是完全依赖公共交通。
博物馆本身很小。里面有很多真正的标本可以观赏，还有一位讲解员推着一辆装满保存器官的推车过来，供人们触摸。能够看到杀死阿贝的子弹（以及他的一些血迹！）以及加菲尔德的脊椎，真是太棒了，但说实话，这个博物馆并没有达到我的预期。虽然有一些独特的展品，但很多都只是重复展示同一个东西，对我来说没什么教育意义。
我可以想象，对于那些对人体没有任何了解的人来说，这或许会更有趣，所以我不想打消参观的积极性。我可能不会建议像我们一样专程前往，但如果你已经在银泉/森林峡谷做了其他事情，那就去看看吧。
