RESUMEN
We performed a questionnaire survey of 199 graduates regarding surgical clerkships to help select future clinical trainingmethods for fifth-year medical students. Many of the graduates understood the significance of clerkships, and 70%were able to benefit from their participation in clinical training. They approved of clerkships, but 22% had critical opinions.Clinical instructors were asked to teach with greater enthusiasm, to be easier to talk with, and to have a deeperknowledge of diseases. Graduates who attended very few lectures in the fourth year were less likely to expect clinical instructorsto teach well. Most graduates believed that clinical instructors should have at least 5 years' clinical experience.These results suggest that all faculties should continue to place a greater emphasis on education and that faculty developmentshould be expanded.
