A Reflection on Longitudinal Family Medicine
Bibliographic record
Abstract
During their first year of medical school McGill students take part in the Longitudinal Family Medicine Experience program. This unique program pairs each student with a practicing family medicine physician across the island of Montreal and allows students to shadow and experience firsthand a primary care practice. Throughout approximately a dozen half-day sessions during their first year, students are exposed to the entire spectrum of family medicine practices; in the emergency department, Centres locaux de services communautaires (CLSCs), labour and delivery rooms, home visits and refugee clinics. This unique, integrated program was designed in tandem with McGill medical school’s new curriculum to allow early exposure to the depth and breadth of community practice and family medicine.Each year as they complete their LFME sessions students complete a reflective essay looking back on their experiences and highlighting personal learning points. Below are three examples of these essays which have been chosen to highlight the diverse nature of family medicine.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
