Early clinical exposure: Points to ponder for its successful implementation in medical colleges in India

Abstract

In general, students who enter medical institutions after completing their higher secondary education to become a doctor have limited knowledge and experience about the field of medicine. Many of these aspirants join medicine with an intention to take care of patients and play an important role in healthcare delivery, nevertheless the exposure to basic medical science subjects (first professional year) does not do any justice in accomplishing the same.
