It is all the more important in designing undergraduate teaching programmes in these specialist subjects to provide a comprehensive basic training programme that is flexible enough to move with the specialty.Abstract:
Musculoskeletal disease in the community is common, and much of it responds to early diagnosis and preventive care. At the same time, modern orthopaedics, like so many specialist subjects, has increased significantly in depth and detail pari passu with its advances.

The orthopaedic undergraduate education programme in Oxford meets these requirements, embraces all aspects of the subject, and enables the medical student to examine the musculoskeletal system with confidence to interpret his findings, without making him an embryo specialist.read more

TL;DR: It is all too easy for an over-anxious patient to misinterpret bland reassurance by the doctor as unwillingness to take her complaint seriously or to go to any real trouble and to hastily attempt reassurance and have her repeatedly and unhappily returning in the future.
