[Learning clinical medicine].

Conceived as a skill and an attitude more than as knowledge, contemporary clinics includes issues such as patient-doctor relationship, collecting and analysing information, diagnostic reasoning and therapeutic decisions. Clinics is learned through significant experiences in responsible patient care, with a critical analysis of each of them, and a real link between theory and practice in order to learn a method more than to acquire isolated knowledge, and through clinical investigation as a way of learning. Teaching clinics is based on faculty example and on supervision and feedback.
