Redefining "unity" - is there a third way?

Pierre de Villiers SA Academy of Family Practice/Primary Care

Abstract

The "historic compromise" reached by the South African Academy of Family Practice/Primary Care (Academy) and the Colleges of Medicine of South Africa (CMSA), supported by the Family Medicine Education Consortium (FaMEC) to bring about unity in academic family medicine, was announced on this very page of SA Family Practice just more than a year ago'. Unfortunately there is still no "unity" and no reason to believe that it will happen soon.
