Experience of a Medical Intern in a Secondary Healthcare Hospital in Mexico

Abstract

In Mexico, medical training is characterized by 4 or 5 years of studies at a university campus, one year of undergraduate internship and one year of social service. The undergraduate internship is the theoretical-practical academic cycle that takes place in the clinical fields and is part of the curriculum of the medical career. Normally we expect to be able to choose a hospital with subspecialties or with prestige in our region. But no matter the type of hospital, the important thing is our attitude to work and learn.
