Abstract

The article focuses on the need for medical schools in Great Britain to teach the role of primary health care team in preventive medicine. Medical schools focus their training in hospitals leading them to ignore preventive medicine. The rise of technology in medicine reduces the role of the doctor in counseling. A primary health care team is important to preventive medicine as it serves as an interface between the health care system and the people.
