Introduction:
The decision to get involved in the study and practice of medicine is not easy. Within the scientific environment, achieving both professional and personal success requires a strict discipline, where effort becomes an essential part of daily life; in addition, having family support becomes crucial in order for not to lose hope when confronting the different adversities that arise during medical training.
Objective:
To identify families where at least two members belong to the Academia Nacional de Medicina de México (ANMM).
Methods:
A cross-sectional study was carried out to identify families of Mexican doctors where at least two members, consanguineous or in-laws, have been or are ANMM members through a review of 2017 ANMM Directory and personal contact with the different academics.
Results:
Information on 45 families belonging to the ANMM was collected.
Conclusions:
From this study, it is possible to show the great influence that some doctors have in their family environment, which makes the study of medicine attractive as a life project.
