Abstract

Editor's Note: In this month's column, Pablo Blasco, MD, PhD; Adriana Roncoletta, MD; Graziela Moreto, MD; Marcelo Levites, MD; and Marco Aurelio Janaudis, MD, of the Brazilian Society of Family Medicine (SOBRAMFA) describe the learning outcomes of a preceptorship program in Brazil that pairs medical students with family physicians. It is unusual for Brazilian medical students to receive this type of opportunity, and their descriptions of what they learned remind us of the contributions that family physicians can make to the education of medical students.
