Where this comes from

Abstract

Family medicine educators today face vast challenges. Clinical demands and the lack of specific revenue streams for our educational mission are among the many threats to the commitment of our faculty to keep education in its rightful place of honor and value within our academic institutions. To preserve our historic and critical mission, it is imperative that we find ways to rekindle the passion that called many of us to a teaching career path.
