It has been previously explained that human dissection is permissible for the education of doctors, under certain conditions, including not dissecting a Muslim. The Quran is a healing for bodies and hearts, and it is not correct to generalize doubt about the trustworthiness of those who claim to heal with it; each case should be examined individually. Allah has specifically mentioned healing in His Book through the Quran and honey.
