Core Clinical Skills

[ambulancedriver]

Hi. I am asking this question here because most everyone here is a medical school graduate. I hope this question is unique enough to warrant answering.

I would like to know what clinical skills all MDs (or DOs) possess by the time they graduate from medical school (regardless of specialty). Theoretically, what should all doctors be able to do assuming they graduated from a U.S. medical school?

Thanks for any responses.

Based on my interactions with many residents (and staff), I'd be thrilled if they could perform a history and physical. In the age of imaging, these are dying skills.
