Some of the first family medicine activity occurred in Turkey in 1961, in Bahrain in 1978, in Lebanon in 1979, in Jordan in 1981, and in Kuwait in 1983. Family medicine programs have also been established in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Libya, and Iraq. In most programs, family medicine training occurs largely in hospitals, even though few Middle Eastern family physicians practice in hospitals after completion of residency training. Thus, there is a need for better outpatient training, but resistance from those responsible for traditional medical education makes it difficult to change the current model of family medicine education. There is also need for better opportunities for professional development after graduation and for establishing research activity in family medicine.

In this study; our aim was to perform reliability study of the Turkish version of National Institutes of Health (NIH) Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) Constipation Scale. Materiel and Methods: The Constipation scale was translated into Turkish by three researchers, and a consensus meeting was held after the translation process. The Turkish text on which the researchers agreed was translated into English by an independent professional translator. The researchers decided that there was no difference between the translated English text and the source text after they compared the two texts in terms of meaning and comprehensibility. As a result of this process, the researchers obtained the final version on which they agreed and the accuracy of which was proved by back translation. Results: A total of 63 patients took part in this study. 32 of them (50.8%) were male, 31 of them (49.2%) were female. mean age of participants was 40,25±16,18 years. Mean questionnaire score was 11,38 ± 2,95. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found to be 0.758 for 9 scale question. Discussion: This study shows that Turkish version of PROMIS-Constipation scale is reliable. We believe that this scale may be used for the objective assessment of patients with constipation in clinical practice.

In the first decade of the millennium family doctor scheme was introduced to the Turkish primary care sector and the name of the primary care doctors (PCDs) changed from “general practitioner” (GP) to “family doctor” (FD). This study aims to give an insight into those changes and to compare the service profiles of PCDs in 1993 and 2012. Data, based on cross sectional surveys among Turkish doctors working in primary care are derived from the 1993 European GP Task Profile study (n = 199) and the 2012 Quality and Costs of Primary Care in Europe (QUALICOPC) study (n = 299). The study focuses on the changes in the primary care service provision based on selected aspects such as the first contact of care, preventive care, and the knowledge exchange and collaboration with other health professionals. Compared to GPs in 1993, FDs in 2012 reported that their involvement in treatment of chronic diseases, first contact care, antenatal and child health care have increased. FDs have more contact with other primary healthcare workers but their contact with hospital consultants have decreased. Overall, the services provided by PCDs seem to be expanded. However, the quality of care given by FDs and its effects on health indicators are needed to be explored by further studies.

The Turkish Board of Family Medicine wanted to pursue a realistic and structured approach in the design of the specialty training programme. This approach required the development of a needs-based core curriculum built on evidence obtained from residents about their needs for specialty training and their needs in the current infrastructure. The aim of this study was to obtain evidence on residents' opinions and views about Family Medicine specialty training.
