The present work was complemented with a revision of their experience in medical clinical consultation: they detected the necessities in better development for abilities and deficiencies in their learning
Discussion. Two aspects are relevant in this study. We reemphasize the identification of deficiencies and necessities that the medical students perceived about their learning: lack of clinical practice, to relate with other persons (patients), learning limited to textbooks only, professor instructors that work like guides and role models.
