To evaluate whether general medicine training in our general ward has beneficial effects on postgraduate surgical training, questionnaires on general medicine training was sent to 30 doctors who had undergone initial training as residents in our hospital and were involved in surgical practice at the time of the survey. Twenty-two responses were obtained. Fifteen respondents had motivation for general practice at the beginning of their residency, and 20 attained their objectives during the 2-year training. Nineteen respondents appreciated their experiences in managing a variety of diseases encompassing the disciplines of internal medicine and surgery, although 12 complained of a shortage of teaching staff. From the viewpoint of its contribution to their present practice, their training in the general ward was evaluated by all respondents as having been beneficial. We conclude that general medicine training has beneficial effects on postgraduate surgical training that emphasizes comprehensive patient care.
