Abstract

Difficulties in the development of primary health care teams have been demonstrated by a number of authors. The important place of interdisciplinary teaching in this development had been stressed. This paper describes an experimental series in which emphasis has been placed on the patient's view of the input of different team members. The value of this approach is discussed.
