The Oslerian Tradition and Changing Medical Education: A Reappraisal

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Although only 21 of Sir William Osler's 45 years in academic medicine were spent in US medical schools (1884 to 1905), he played a major role in shaping modern medical education in this country. The integration of scholarship with patient care, together with the science and art of medicine, was central to Osler's teaching and writing throughout his career. A classic generalist and a charismatic clinical teacher, he taught by example and was as concerned with the ideals of medicine as with its science and knowledge.
