Practice

The country seems to be focused around traditional Chinese medicine instead of Western medicine. There was no comprehensive data found on Macau through an online scope and literature review. The initial literature scope was done to collect data from online sources, such as, medical school websites and the WHO website. The literature review was done to collect data from papers retrieved using Google, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Web of Science. No key informants were obtained to help verify or obtain information.

There is a 1 year diploma or fellowship program training in family medicine in Macau.
