A double edge...
Abstract
Our congress in the city of gold has the theme Skills in General Practice. Studies looking at what patients require of their doctors show that patients value expertise and skill very highly! They do not only want a nice guy - they expect an adequate level of competence as well. Doctors and patients will therefore agree that the time spent from 14 to 18 April 1986 at the Fifth General Practitioners Congress updating and learning new skills appropriate to family practice/primary care will be time well spent.
