Undergraduate education in primary care

Abstract
Four years of experience with an undergraduate program in primary care in a new community-based medical school are described. Students are intimately involved over a two-and-a-half-year period in the delivery of primary care in rural and semi-rural community health centers. Despite problems of financing and, especially, faculty recruitment and development, the program has been enthusiastically endorsed by students and patients and appears to represent a viable new model for medical education.
