RESUMO
Over the past decade much attention has been focussed on medical professionalism. However, the main dilemma in Pakistan is that both the teachers and the students are too occupied in covering the cognitive knowledge that they are unable to spare time to practice the necessary skills, behaviour, and attitude. In order to understand how culture affects professionalism, one must first have a clear understanding of Pakistani culture. According to our best educated guess, we have suggested a few teaching methods which can assist in teaching culturally sensitive issues. Despite our suggestions, one cannot ignore the limitations in terms of constantly changing culture, difficulty in introducing unfamiliar teaching strategies and the ample time required.
