Aims

Making the student more sensitive to the relationship between the patient and the doctor and more aware of the importance of listening in the comprehensiveness of the patient and his difficulties in his own life and familial and social context.

Main themes

Small groups of 15 students are leaded by two leaders : a general practitioner and a psycho-analyst. The leaders promote the emergence of a clinical story lived by one of the students and a free discussion between the members of the groups, like a “Balint Group”. The inscription is free at the condition to attempt all the lessons.
