Teaching psychosomatic approaches as a basis of clinical medicine.
We have introduced our idea of psychosomatic approach as a basis of clinical medicine and the present state of psychosomatic teaching and training in our department as well as in other university hospitals in Japan. In teaching and training medical students and postgraduates, we aim at producing psychosomatically minded clinical physicians. For this purpose, multidisciplinary and teamwork approaches in cooperation with paramedicals are needed.
