This letter illustrated our online workshop about clinical practice and postgraduate education about social determinants of health (SDH) to family medicine residents and attending physicians in Japan. The participants were encouraged not only by acquiring knowledge and skills but by sharing their experience and talking reflectively. The opportunities for family physicians in Japan to learn about SDH and reflect on their practices should be warranted.
