Tales of two European cities: primary care in actualité

摘要

Comparisons between primary care settings in Europe are of particular interest since the RCGP adopted EURACT criteria in the new MRCGP curriculum. This article contrasts two everyday GP experiences between Italy and England. Themes of practice are shown to be common but systemic differences are evident and prevail. The reader is encouraged to reflect on these two aspects in the course of the article.
