[Do medical schools still train doctors?].

In practice, medical finals are not final and a supplementary training is necessary before medicine may be practised independently. Social factors and an ongoing evolution of medical science prompt reconsideration of the structure, content and duration of the training of doctors and specialists. This was the subject of a meeting of this Journal. One possibility of differentiation in the basic training is an early subdivision into care physicians, clinical specialists and health physicians. In the training of social medical officers one of the factors to be taken into account is the influence of principals. For GP's, postgraduate training is increasingly important because of social and other developments. The training of non-surgical specialists can be made shorter since a significant proportion of the time in the present training is devoted to areas requiring special attention. The training of surgical specialists could be shortened by introducing a training programme that is independent of the procedure. Responsibility for the total care of the patient will be borne by the specialists jointly.
