Abstract:
At the request of the Society of University Urologists a survey of urological teaching at 113 United States medical schools was done. The most distressing finding was that more than two-thirds (68 per cent) of the schools do not require any clinical exposure to urology before graduation. In view of the fact that urology is rarely, if ever, taught in any of the primary care disciplines after graduation, it is suggested that patient care may well suffer for this shortcoming in our medical education curriculum.
