Summary
Predictors of Satisfaction of Family Medicine Academy Trainers in Family Medicine Residency Training in Saudi Arabia. FP shortage in KSA was estimated to reach 15000 FP representing only 28% of the physician's power in primary health care centers (PHCC) (Family Medicine Academy Launching, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 2019). The lack of qualified physicians and the considerable expansion of the primary health care system around the Kingdom, reaching more than 2000 PHCC, indicates the need to focus on increasing FP. Many physicians apply for the family medicine postgraduate program (FMPGP) annually, there is a lack of adequate training centers, trainers, and resources. In 2019, the curriculum was restructured to a three-year residency program focusing on developing highly competent FPs. It is a set goal to train 100 FP each year to compensate for the shortage (Family Medicine Academy Launching, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 2019)
