What is a good doctor? The impact of fruitful irrelevance in medical education
Medical Teacher, 06/23/09
Borleffs JCC - Medicine is a science and evidence-based profession. Therefore, medical education and training should offer optimal conditions to help students to become a medical expert. However, in order to become a 'good doctor' the development of additional skills should also be stimulated.

This will contribute to their professional performance.
