title: [Contradictions of modern medicine and the issues of continuing education of primary care doctors].
abstract: The national project "Health" stipulates qualitative improvement of first medical aid; the key role here belongs to first line physicians: therapeutists, pediatricians, and general practitioners. In this regard, higher school should reconsider afterdiploma training of doctors as well as search for and introduce the most resultive methods of training. The solution of this problem is associated with a range of difficulties, including those connected with contradictions in the development of medicine. The problem of continuous afterdiploma education is still topical and may be solved by the introduction of fractional full-time tuition, the use of self-training, and the development of distant training including the creation of modules of certain fields of the discipline under study.
