ABSTRACT
Primary care education is extremely important for undergraduate medical students. We evaluated a primary care program with fifth-or sixth-year medical students at the Hokkaido University School of Medicine from October 2002 through July 2003. The aim of this study was to examine differences in the medical situation between a university hospital and primary care clinics and to determine the importance of primary care. We assessed students' opinions about primary care on the basis of student reports. After completing this program, medical students (30.7%) believed primary care medicine was necessary, recognized the importance of the medical techniques, and were motivated to study primary care medicine (93.6%). The problems of this program were the short schedule and the cost of public transportation. We conclude that this primary care program is extremely effective for teaching undergraduate medical students about primary care medicine.
