title: Family practice residency training in the community: a report on four years' experience.
abstract: The Department of Family Medicine at the University of Western Ontario has been training family practice residents in community based group practices for four years. The methods used to select and evaluate the residents and their practice experience are outlined in this article. Despite difficulties which arose as a result of geographical distance, the experience was felt to be worthwhile by those who participated. The program has been approved by the Department of Family Medicine for expansion and continuation.
