“…It is unclear whether Family Practice and Family Medicine will repeat General Practice’s history of avoiding an enduring commitment to a relationship. One newly proposed suitor for Family Practice is childless General Internal Medicine (2, 4, 8, 12, 13). But the compatability and reproductive potential of such a pairing appears dubious (11).…”

The medical specialty of family practice and its academic discipline, family medicine, have both struggled to define their identities with respect to each other and with respect to medicine in general. Family practice and family medicine now appear to be in the young-adult stage of development. In early adulthood, it is difficult to gain an objective perspective on how multigenerational family patterns contribute to problems and affect decisions. This article presents a putative ancestry for family practice and family medicine in the form of a genogram. The metaphoric genealogy focuses on philosophical dilemmas faced by family practitioners and academic family physicians, some of which may become survival issues in the near future.

“…Such specialty-oriented definitions have c0rl tributed to the confusion in terminology between pri mary care, principal care, general care, and generalis physicians (13).

Graduate Primary Care Training: A Collaborative Alternative for Family Practice, Internal Medicine, and Pediatrics

The Residency Program in Social Medicine at Montefiore Medical Center is a collaborative, integrated training program for primary care pediatricians, internists, and family physicians within one interdisciplinary organization. Since 1970 we have trained more than 200 physicians, prepared them for board certification in their specialty, emphasized the psychosocial aspects and social determinants of health and illness, and shared a faculty, curriculum, and commitment to provide medical care for inner-city, underserved populations. We discuss the program's history and curriculum, administrative and academic structure, shared "cross-track" faculty units (psychosocial; social medicine; and research, education, and evaluation), and graduates' practice outcomes. The interdisciplinary character of the Residency Program in Social Medicine helps physicians successfully serve the underserved and exemplifies that interdisciplinary medical education succeeds when interdisciplinary health care teams are organized for optimal patient care. Only the federal government has the perspective and power to foster more interdisciplinary collaboration and strengthen primary care education in a period of shrinking resources.
