Thirty-five years of family medicine training and development in Uganda

Résumé

In Uganda, family medicine training was started in 1989 to train an all-round generalist able to provide comprehensive care at a district hospital. Since then, the training programme has undergone several changes to cater for the needs of communities in a changing world. Very low numbers of applicants and poor understanding of the discipline have been a persistent challenge. Availability of non-family physician champions, family physician role models and collaborative networks are key to development of family medicine.
